Book Review: Quantum Heresies, by Mary Peelen
My world cracked open in fourth grade when we learned our planets.

Book Review: Mosaic of the Dark, by Lisa Dordal
Mosaic of the Dark is drenched in metaphor, mystery, and prayer. Dordal, in her acquired wisdom, has produced a book of poetry that transcends a woman’s story to become a spiritual awakening.

Steenblik’s poems give this reader the impression of someone who’s read and thought deeply about the role of the feminine divine, how Heavenly Mother can be sought and invited more fully into Mormon discourse in general and into the spirituality of individuals in particular.
