ABOUT THE BOOK:
Weaving Our Way Beyond Patriarchy – A Womancraft Compendium
to celebrate the ten-year anniversary of Womancraft Publishing.
Compiled, edited and with an introduction
by Womancraft Publishing founder Lucy H. Pearce.
If what we are experiencing right now are the death throes of patriarchy…how did we get here…and what comes next?
Taking the ancient women’s work of weaving as its framework, Weaving Our Way Beyond Patriarchy is a collaborative text of voices woven from the Womancraft community – our own authors, both established and upcoming, aligned authors published elsewhere, and readers, ranging in age from twelve to over seventy.
Through poetry, prose, letters, articles and artwork, more than eighty women – authors, activists, artists, community builders, doctors, doulas, priestesses, poets, permaculturalists, professors, teachers, witches, yoga teachers, mothers, grandmothers – reflect on what it might look like beyond patriarchy and how we might get there, from the
big picture to the domestic details.
This diverse and inclusive compendium of contemporary women’s wisdom is bound to become a much-loved handbook to carry us forward through these strange and uncertain times, with words to encourage and inspire us and our sisters, daughters, granddaughters, friends and communities.
THEMES:
Revisioning patriarchal history from female and feminine perspectives.
Exploring what needs healing/ transforming...and how we can do this: practically, energetically, linguistically, psychologically, systemically, politically.
