Braided Streams: Esther and a Woman's Way of Growing
M Bankson
Originally published in 1985 by LuraMedia (which became Innisfree Press), the first edition sold nearly 30,000 copies. In this revised edition the stories have been thoroughly updated for a more contemporary approach. Now there is a new generation of women who are trying to braid their life "streams" of career development, sexuality, and spiritually. This book is for them as well as those who loved the first edition.
Weaving together the rich symbolism of the Esther story, stories of contemporary women, and her own story, Marjory Bankson presents a pattern of women's development and a paradigm of wholeness. In eleven chapters, each with journaling questions for personal reflection and guidelines for group discussion, she invites women to tell their stories, honor their experiences, claim their bodies, and celebrate a woman's way of growing and creating.
