Book description
I, Magdalena, seeks to give fresh life and a modern voice to two significant women in history. Labeling them as harlot and possessed prostitute, for which there is no substantiated historical evidence, these slanders were inserted into biblical records hundreds of years after the death of Christ. This manipulation of text has served to suppress the significance of women in spiritual history and to support a religious patriarchy that still exists today. I, Magdalena, is told through the voice of a young girl who is born to a mother of rare artistic talent and vision. Knowing her fiercely independent daughter will wither and die under the harsh religiosity and patriarchy to which she is born, Magdalena's mother creates a story of magical stars bestowing rare talents and gifts and claiming her as their own. As she escapes the horrors of her life, Magdalena becomes a vagabond and outcast, a sinner in the eyes of legitimate society. With only her story and fierce will, Magdalena endures tragedy, abuse, heartache and abandonment, until she finds, at last, her place among the very stars that guide her.
