Several years ago, I featured the fantastic book \u201cWitches, Sluts, Feminists: Conjuring the Sex Positive\u201d by Kristen J. Soll\u00e9e<\/a> on the site. I loved it so much, and frequently wondered if\/when I would see the author\u2019s work out in the world again. You can imagine how excited I was when flipping through the Weiser Books catalog and saw her name once again.<\/p>\n

\"\"This time the book is \u201cWitch Hunt: A Traveler\u2019s Guide to the Power & Persecution of the Witch.\u201d It is the perfect follow up to \u201cWitches, Sluts, Feminists\u201d. Where her first book followed much of the evolution of the persecuted female witch, her latest, \u201cWitch Hunt\u201d, Soll\u00e9e literally travels that history. A personal memoir and travelogue, \u201cWitch Hunt\u201d shares the authors reflections and experiences in unexpected and widespread locales. Visit Italy and Vatican City, France, Germany, Ireland, England, and Scotland. In the United States you will learn more about America\u2019s misadventures with witchcraft in Virginia, Delaware, Connecticut, New York, and of course, Salem, Massachusetts.<\/p>\n

Soll\u00e9e does everyone a huge favor by providing travel resources in the back of the book. Trust me, by the time you are done with \u201cWitch Hunt\u201d you are going to want to check them all out! \u201cWitch Hunt\u201d is a thoughtful exploration time and place, and the convergence of religion, spirituality, and gender.<\/p>\n
