Confessions of a Pagan Nun - Paperback
by Kate Horsley (Author)
A druid-turned-nun writes of faith, love, and loss in this "beautifully written and thought-provoking book" set at the dawn of Ireland's Christian era (Library Journal)
Cloistered in a stone cell at the monastery of Saint Brigit, a sixth-century Irish nun secretly records the memories of her Pagan youth, interrupting her assigned task of transcribing Augustine and Patrick. She revisits her past, piece by piece--her fiercely independent mother, whose skill with healing plants and inner strength she inherited; her druid teacher, the brusque and magnetic Giannon, who introduced her to the mysteries of the written language.
