The Androgyne Journal

by James Broughton
abstract

The following blurbs are taken from the book cover.

James Broughton treats us to a generous slice of transformation with this Journal. In sharing the story of his own soul's healing, he bestows a gift of healing on the reader as well. I was transported.

-Robert H. Hopcke, author of MEN'S DREAMS, MEN'S HEALING

James Broughton's ANDROGYNE JOURNAL is and important, unique, and compelling book. His story of an earthy, erotic, and holy inner journey is told with zest, style, and passion.

-Malcolm Boyd, author of ARE YOU RUNNING WITH ME, JESUS?

The ANDROGYNE JOURNAL is probably the most important and certainly the most tenderly intimate record of transformation we are likely ever to encounter. In a highly charged and richly readable prose, this great poet tells of a momentous summer when Hermes and Aphrodite reenacted their mythic courtship and consummation in the sensory theater of his own very real body. As readers, we witness the drama with growing awareness that this achemist of ecstacy is passing along to us a vital key to our own unfolding.

-James Leo Herlihy, author of MIDNIGHT COWBOY
