Patricia Huntington | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

Patricia Joy Huntington reflects that loneliness does not only consist ofthe heartfelt absences of a friend, partner, spouse, or child, but rather stems froma radical breach in one's life journey. In this conceptually rigorous and warmlypoetic book, Huntington develops a unique philosophy of receptivity and an originalportrait of redemptive suffering. By fully exploring notions of pain, she alsoexamines how the relation between the heart's musical attunement and meaning-filledlife passages can lead one to a more spiritual philosophy and a more independentlife. Huntington reveals the maternal face of God and encourages the feminine divinein her poignant narrative of overcoming. This deeply philosophical meditation offersa nuanced view of religious experience, providence, and transcendence.
