This book represents a major contribution to what is currently an under researched field. There has been very little written on the significance of women poststructuralist theorists for feminist reading practices in theology nor has much been published interrogating the crucial role that literature has played in the development of feminist theology. This work breaks new ground in linking the study of literary texts and theory to creative writing. It raises important epistemological questions concerning the use of the imagination in theological thinking and introduces 'reflexive theology' as a discipline and practice.

Industry Reviews

"Heather Walton makes a strong case for more fully incorporating fiction, published diaries, journals, poetry, science fiction, and feminist philosophy by women into the discussion of theology...Walton is the Director of the Centre for Literature, Theology, and the Arts at Glasglow University, and her particular knowledge is reflected in the choice of topics in this book....Walton's book provides the opportunity for women in different social locations and various forms of ministry to explore the interplay of theology and contemporary literature." - Interpretation--Sanford Lakoff "Interpretation "
