MaelBrigdeTWO: Each book features personal essays written by NeoPagans and Witches about their connection to the Goddess Brigit (Swann) or Paganism in general (Hiscock).
This is a series of articles by devotees of Brighid, and I am thoroughly enjoying reading the offerings. What a brave and lovely group of beings! I hadn’t intended to rate the book since I have an essay in it, but it is much more than my small piece and deserves to be promoted.
Holly put this small book together herself, and did a good job in general. She has assembled interesting essays from a variety of Brigidines, and has let people tell their stories in their own words. She did overlook some basic bits that would have been useful--page numbers (though in a 48 pp book it isn’t dire), and short author bios--even just a list of locations. I know the people are from all over; I’d like to know where.
The images used in the book are good and are credited. I’m particularly taken with the Brigidine Celtic cross used on the cover. It is from Trearddur Bay, Anglesey. (Photo by Ceri Norman.)
Holly had wanted to do a book on Brigit but, on researching the subject, decided she'd be simply rehashing available materials. Instead when she reluctantly let go of the project, she was inspired to collect the stories of some of Brigit's followers and offer them to the world.
In honour of Brigit's attributes as a healer, and Holly's mother, who is in a care home with late stage Alzheimer's, donations from the sale of the book will go to the Alzheimer's Society.
