"Every time we raise our voices, we hear echoes." "Jo-Anne
Elder, from the Foreword"
Through short stories, journal entries and poetry, the women in
"Voices and Echoes" explore the changing landscape of their
spiritual lives. Experienced writers such as Lorna Crozier, Di
Brandt and Ann Copeland, as well as strong new voices, appear to
speak to each other as they draw from a wealth of personal
resources to find a way to face life's questions and discover
meaning in their lives.
There is something familiar about these stories and poems --
they echo those we've heard before and those we've half forgotten.
Whether they search for a voice in a world where men monopolize or
journey into painful memories to free the self from the past, they
do not despair, they do not end. Individual entries become the
whole story -- an unending story of rebirth and reaffirmation.
The book begins with an illuminating foreword that introduces
readers to the cultural and philosophical background of many of the
stories, and concludes with the reflections of scholars, writers
and artists that are intended to provoke further discussion.
