A woman's voice is a hex. She must learn to exalt men always. If she doesn't do that, then she is a threat. A demon whore, a witch - so says everyone and the law.
the writing in this book was so powerful, it brought me to tears several times.
this book draws from scottish history to tell the story of geillis duncan, a young woman who was tortured and accused of witchcraft and sentenced to death. it is a heart wrenching story of the wrongs that have been done to women throughout history while also highlighting the unique power and beauty and strength of women.
how i love being a woman!
