Confessions of a Pagan Nun by Kate Horsley
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I finished this book a couple days ago. I wish I didn’t have to write a review for it. Mostly because I can’t figure out what to say.
What I hope to find was an education about the Pagan ways in a gentle fictional story. Instead there was plenty to tell about the cruelty of the ‘onward christian soldiers’. But the book seemed to tell more about the cruelty and less about the goodness of either religion. Even the awe of nature and all her wonders was minimal.
Emotions seemed to rule the book: guilt, depression and unrequited love.
The feelings that I am left with are the cold and muddiness, disease and death.
Many have left much more eloquent reviews for this book. I leave only the shivering grittiness I feel when thinking of this story.
