Seasons of Death and Life by Maggie Ross

heidihaverkamp's review against another edition

4.0

Maggie Ross writes an interesting account of her vocation as an Anglican solitary, reminding me that "hermits" aren't necessarily cut off from the world. She engages in friendships and fights with her neighbors, and even local police. She truly immerses herself in the culture of the rural northwest, in and through her vocation of prayer and celibacy. She does tend toward arrogance, and often portrays herself as a victim, however.
