Ann Arbor:: Firebrand Books,, (2003). SIGNED first edition -. Fine in illustrated wrappers.. First printing, a trade paperback original. A novel set in a convent like no other - "Julian Pines Abbey. Women come and stay or come and go, in a quiet experiment to remake religious and communal life. No tradition is safe from revision - not the tradition that says God is male, or that women can't be priests, or that nuns must be celibate. . . the story of the women who, as Sister Anne says, come for all the wrong reasons and - if they stay - stumble on good ones, while they struggle (sometimes hilariously) with love, sex, community, snakes, neighbors, outhouses, poverty, goats, sanity, sobriety, sisterhood, compost, and the life of the spirit." INSCRIBED on the title page. 205 pp plus a reading guide.
