Gleaner and Gladiator is written with candour, clarity and energy to inspire others on a similar creative path. The author is a practicing artist who is able to describe the creative process in a way that authenticates her experiences while directing the reader towards new ways of thinking.
The concept of a completely profane world -- of a cosmos wholly desacralized -- is a fairly recent invention of the Western mind, and only now are we beginning to realize the appalling consequences of trying to order and mold our social, personal, and creative life in obedience to its dictates. This book attempts to clarify what is demanded of us if we are to have any chance of avoiding the impending catastrophe. It examines the nature and significance of the sacred itself and focuses on the ever-present, timeless qualities of beauty, love, and miracle through which we can be renewed and transformed whatever the condition of the world in which we live.
