Woman’s Journey to Herself
Judith Duerk
A small book that is a meditation on a big question: "How might your life have been different if there had been a place for you, a place for you to go to be with your mother, with your sisters and the aunts, with your grandmothers, and the great- and great-great-grandmothers, a place of women to go, to be, to return to, as woman? How might your life have been different?" . . .
In the most gentle way possible, by filling a space which has been empty for so long we have forgotten it exists, Duerk conjures an alternate culture which provides the connection, nourishment, and role-modeling women crave from other women. The act of simply imagining who one might have been, having had this experience from birth, can create a new place in the mind, another point of view which illuminates our current culture.
