Publisher's Summary
Nautilus award winning Burning Woman is a breath-taking and controversial woman’s journey through history - personal and cultural - on a quest to find and free her own power.
Uncompromising and all-encompassing, Pearce uncovers the archetype of the burning women of days gone by - Joan of Arc and the witch trials, through to the way women are burned today in cyber bullying, acid attacks, shaming and burnout, fearlessly examining the roots of feminine power - what it is, how it has been controlled, and why it needs to be unleashed on the world during our modern burning times.
Burning Woman explores:
- Burning from within: A woman’s power - how to build it, engage it, and not be destroyed by it.
- Burning from without: The role of shame, and honour in the time-worn ways the dominant culture uses fire to control the feminine.
- The darkness: Overcoming our fear of the dark, and discovering its importance in cultivating power.

With contributions from leading burning women of our era: Isabel Abbott, ALisa Starkweather, Shiloh Sophia McCloud, Molly Remer, Julie Daley, Bethany Webster...
