Overview

Maiden Mother Crone is a memoir in verse, challenging the traditional approach to faith by putting Madeleine's own stories at the heart of a narrative defined by a quest for spiritual identity. Encased within the spiritual feminine it offers magic and mysticism, abuse and reconciliation, power and perception and faith and feminism. This collection is a 'cri de coeur' for women who may have been side-lined, abused and disenfranchised to find their own seat at the table. Taking its cues from the older, more matriarchal nature and Celtic and Nordic traditions, Maiden Mother Crone takes us on a journey from 'mother goddess' to modern faith. With inclusion and spiritual expression at the heart of it, the collection calls upon us to find a new way to be and to connect; reminding us that as 'Maidens, Mothers and Crones' we speak the same fundamental truths the world over. 'I'll weave pixels into promises and shared words into prayers of hope, and so transform this world of men to somewhere crones can fly again.' Maiden Mother Crone is part of the acclaimed Crossing Places series

Reviews

""An incredible work. The magickal and spiritual aspects are very important, too, and for me they make the book more original than most. I do review a lot of poetry tomes but not many are as consciously magic-making as this one!"" Mab Jones, Broadcaster, Author, Poet ""Original, evocative, sensitive, thought-provoking, meaningful, haunting, deep, spiritual, magical, connected, unique, inspirational, hugely identifiable-with and, ultimately, brave. Brave and powerful."" Clare Cooper, former deputy fiction editor, Woman's Weekly ""The links between the world, the physical body and the profound spirituality which runs through this collection are beautifully apparent. Reminds me of the work of Anne Sexton and Alice Oswald."" Gita Ralleigh, poet, author, lecturer Honest, reflective, raw, vulnerable, powerful, and poignant collection. It felt stripped back, exposed, in the most empowering way. I honestly don't think I will ever forget it."" Helen Aitchison, published writer and social entrepreneur
