From Chapter 1 November 17, 1989 Dear Cardinal Lustiger, Your
Eminence: My name is Daniella Stonebrook Blue. I am-or was-by
profession an astronomer. We are strangers to each other. Your name
was given to me by a woman on a bus as we were traveling across New
Mexico. Because of her insistence, I am writing to you about this
dark period of my life. I need to speak to you about the matter of
light. Light is the alphabet of God. I knew this when I was born
and then I forgot. This is the first time I have understood it as
an adult woman. Even as I prepared to write these words, I didn’t
know what they implied until they appeared on the page.
In the tradition of Annie Dillard and Natalie Goldberg, this resource for writers and non-writers alike shows the act of writing to be a dynamic means of knowing, healing, and creating the body, mind, and spirit.
Though women have long felt kinship with animals, in the past, they seldom participated in the study of them. Now, as more women make animals the subject of their investigations, significant new ideas are emerging--based on the premise that animals are honored co-sharers of the earth. This unprecedented anthology features original stories, essays, meditations, and poems by a vast array of women nature writers and field scientists, including:
DIANE ACKERMAN - VIRGINIA COYLE - GRETEL EHRLICH - DIAN FOSSEY - TESS GALLAGHER - JANE GOODALL - TEMPLE GRANDIN - SUSAN GRIFFIN - JOY HARJO - BARBARA KINGSOLVER - URSULA LE GUIN - DENISE LEVERTOV - LINDA McCARRISTON - SUSAN CHERNAK McELROY - RIGOBERTA MENCHÚ - CYNTHIA MOSS - KATHERINE PAYNE - MARGE PIERCY - PATTIANN ROGERS - LINDA TELLINGTON-JONES - HAUNANI-KAY TRASK - GILLIAN VAN HOUTEN - TERRY TEMPEST WILLIAMS
