Insightful and inspiring critique on patriarchal customs surrounding love and self-love. (

the information regarding the patriarchical society was presented very well with illuminating descriptions. I was not always pleased with the repetitions, but the content was worth it. (

This is a good book for women frustrated with relationships, and who are searching for ways to be in loving relationships. (

hooks is not only an activist for change, she is an activist and a believer in the right to and power of love - and her recent trilogy on the subject explores this eloquently. when i was in california back in february, a friend recommended these to me, and i’m so glad. definitely these are some of the best and most progressive books i have read on defining, understanding, and looking for love within the patriarchal morass we often find ourselves in. love, she posits, is subverted by popular notions of love on television and in the movies - and it is a radical act to reclaim love, and to be open to it, and to live it. i found these books hopeful and moving and they made me realize my own rights to love free of coercion and violence, and that this is as worth a goal as any.

There is an eros present at every meeting, and this is also sacred. One only has to listen inwardly to the histories and resonances of the word we use for religious experience. In Sanskrit the word satsang, which translates into English as "meeting" means "godly gathering." In the English language the word common is linked through the word "communicate" to "communion." ...To exist in a state of communion is to be aware of the nature of existence. -Susan Griffin
