Deepen your knowledge & community
Join us as we dive into the other side of the story, the one that hasn’t been told. The story of the divine feminine, and the nature we’ve been disconnected from.
We read a variety of titles, from nonfiction to fiction, all centered around stories of the feminine (both divine and supremely human).

This month’s title…
The forest of enchantments
“The Ramayana, one of the world’s greatest epics, is also a tragic love story. In this brilliant retelling, Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni places Sita at the centre of the novel: this is Sita’s version.
The Forest of Enchantments is also a very human story of some of the other women in the epic, often misunderstood and relegated to the margins: Kaikeyi, Surpanakha, Mandodari. A powerful comment on duty, betrayal, infidelity and honour, it is also about women’s struggle to retain autonomy in a world that privileges men, as Chitra transforms an ancient story into a gripping, contemporary battle of wills.”
