A Special Illumination by Rollan McCleary

Authority, Inspiration and Heresy in Gay Spirituality


A Special Illumination book cover A Special Illumination: Authority, Inspiration and Heresy in Gay Spirituality published by Equinox Press is about the long hidden stream of gay spirituality in many nations and cultures that has reached open expression in the modern West and become a trend affecting religion issues.

Based on a pioneering thesis that became a media sensation even before it was even printed this book studies all aspects of the gay spiritual psychology and phenomenon seeking its commonalities beneath the wide diversity from Christian to neo-pagan. This is both a guide for those gay and straight who want signposts in a largely uncharted area and a forum of ideas for those who know something and query the real significance of this movement's role as heretic or prophet to society.

A Special Illumination will be in main bookshops (Waterstone, Books Etc and others) in UK from Dec. 31, 2004 and should be available in Australia after January 2005. It is also available on Amazon. ISBN: 1904768547
