Altar Music: A Novel

Enter a Mysterious, Cloistered World Full of Passion and Regret, Where the Lines Between the Sexual, Artistic, and Religious Become Blurred. This achingly beautiful and revelatory first novel is the story of three generations of strong-willed women and their battles to balance personal longings with the disciplines of their church: Meghan, who dismisses the priest's injunctions about sex until tragedy befalls her family; Kate, who so fears God's power to destroy that she shuts herself off from emotion completely; and, finally, Elise, whose connection to unknowable forces drives her into the most exhilarating, disillusioning, and haunting experience of her life. Written with lyricism and emotional authenticity, Altar Music is a portrait of a nun as a young girl, an epic tale of a family both defined and divided by its religious beliefs, and a powerful story about mothers and daughters.

Set in the wild, rock-and-lake region of northern Minnesota, this is an exquisitely told tale of three generations of strong-willed women and their inner battles to balance personal longings with the disciplines of their church.

A garland of the feminine Divine and an acknowledgment of the mysteries of every woman's life, this is a fresh look at the centuries-old prayer of the Rosary. It is also an exquisite glimpse into the heart of Mary, mother of Jesus, who for women represents the power of life itself. This is the first feminist interpretation of the Rosary.

This revelatory memoir probes the mystical origins of an intimate relationship between a priest and nun during the turbulent era of Catholic Church renewal. Both of them had dedicated their lives to Divine Love in Christian prayer and service. They shared the same ideals, but as the church's vision expanded, they found themselves on a sharp edge of paradox, never knowing if the next choice would be spiritually heroic or a fall into delusion. Wanting to be faithful to the divine call, they felt caught between the laws of the institutional church and the drawing of the spirit within. Some stories require decades in the telling. This is one. For over thirty years the author revealed only snippets. Some understandings require a remembering so deep and stark it might seem preferable to bury even the snippets beyond retrieval, not because they are despised or feared, but because each fragment of the story is finally loved too much.
