Stale Bread & Miracles

<p>From the moment Meg seeks entry into the priesthood her vocation is challenged. Charting a path through the campaign for women's ordination Stale Bread & Miracles unfolds into a story that is heart-breaking and hopeful...</p><p>An unflinching meditation on the dehumanising power of the institution and the humane tenacity to re-invent life told in language that combines the rhythm and lyricism of poetry with the narrative minimalism of pared down prose.</p><p>This is an extraordinary narrative now in it's third edition.</p><p></p><p>Far beyond the clear-sighted documentation of institutional attitudes this is the examination of one woman's journey through a process. It is a word-dance of seven-times-seven veils each peeled off held up to the light and then laid aside until we see Meg alone in the spotlight as the curtain comes down. I found myself giving her a standing ovation. Brava! Brava!</p><p>- Ann Drysdale</p>
