Waking the Witch
Summary
From the podcast host of The Witch Wave and practicing witch Pam Grossman - who Vulture has dubbed the “Terry Gross of witches” - comes an exploration of the world’s fascination with witches, why they have intrigued us for centuries and why they’re more relevant now than ever. When you think of a witch, what do you picture? Pointy black hat, maybe a broomstick. But witches in various guises have been with us for millennia. In Waking the Witch, Pam Grossman explores the impact of the world’s most magical icon. From the idea of the femme fatale in league with the devil to the bewitching pop culture archetypes in Sabrina the Teenage Witch and Harry Potter; from the spooky ladies in fairy tales to the rise of contemporary witchcraft, witches reflect the power and potential of women. Part cultural analysis, part memoir, Waking the Witch traces the author’s own journey on the path to witchcraft and how this has helped her find self-empowerment and purpose. It celebrates witches past, present, and future and reveals the critical role they have played - and will continue to play - in the world as we know it. “Deftly illuminating the past while beckoning us towards the future, Waking the Witch has all the makings of a feminist classic. Wise, relatable, and real, Pam Grossman is the witch we need for our times.” (Ami McKay, author of The Witches of New York)

Summary
Das große Hörbuch des Magischen Feminismus Die Autorin verknüpft die Neue Weiblichkeit mit der Magie der Hexen. Die Hexe - the Witch - ist das ultimative Symbol für Freiheit, Subversivität und weibliche Urkraft. Pam Grossman schafft den Spagat, mit alten Klischees über Hexen aufzuräumen und das lebendige Bild einer spirituell selbstbewussten Frau zu zeichnen. Ihr Buch beschreibt Witchcraft-Traditionen im historischen und modernen Kontext und zeigt auf, in welchem Maße uns die Magie jenes Urweibes Hexe in unseren täglichen Sehgewohnheiten begleitet, wie z.B. in Game of Thrones, Harry Potter und Carrie. Vor dem Hintergrund politischer Bewegungen wie #MeToo und Women's Marches ist das Hörbuch ein Ratgeber moderner Lebenshilfe für mehr Selbstbewusstsein. >> Diese ungekürzte Hörbuch-Fassung genießt du exklusiv nur bei Audible.
