Description
by Shannon Staloch (Author)
A new Muslim, Shannon Staloch moves to California to live near a community studying traditional Islam and finds herself learning another venerable tradition, midwifery. In this intricately woven memoir, Shannon braids the intimate moments from the birth stories of a diverse cast of women with the reflections of great thinkers from the Islamic and Western traditions-from the spiritual master Imam al-Ghazali to the British obstetrician Grantly Dick Read, from Plato to Malcolm X-as she traces her journey of finding belonging and an enduring path to truth in her new faith. Birth by birth, Shannon arrives closer to understanding her craft and herself, as she aims at a place that transcends identity, buoyed by the belief that dedication to a craft could shape not just the hands of a craftswoman, but also her soul.
