Sacred Wilderness

A Clan Mother story for the twenty-first century, Sacred Wildernessexplores
the lives of four women of different eras and backgrounds who come
together to restore foundation to a mixed-up, mixed-blood woman--a woman
who had been living the American dream, and found it a great maw of
emptiness. These Clan Mothers may be wisdom-keepers, but they are
anything but stern and aloof--they are women of joy and grief, risking
their hearts and sometimes their lives for those they love. The novel
swirls through time, from present-day Minnesota to the Mohawk territory
of the 1620s, to the ancient biblical world, brought to life by an
indigenous woman who would come to be known as the Virgin Mary. The Clan
Mothers reveal secrets, the insights of prophecy, and stories that are
by turns comic, so painful they can break your heart, and perhaps even
powerful enough to save the world. In lyrical, lushly imagined prose, Sacred Wildernessis a novel of unprecedented necessity.
