Phyllis Curott, "The Love Spell: An Erotic Memoir of Spiritual Awakening"
Gotham | 2004 | ISBN: 1592400973 | 368 pages | PDF | 3,9 MB
Cross Sex and the City and charmed, and you have Curott's latest autobiographical effort, in which the author of the best-selling Book of Shadows (1998), about her initiation into Wicca, describes how magic came to her aid in finding romance. A high-powered real-estate lawyer in New York, she seemed to have no luck with men until she applied the magic she had learned. Very soon, she met the man of her dreams. Or was he? Even magic didn't work to keep the lovers together, not even the magic of a pagan handfasting ceremony that her rather conservative relatives found a bit disconcerting. At book's end, the marriage is over, and Curott is again sending out love spells; but the rituals and wisdom of her chosen religion have helped her see how important self-awareness and self-acceptance are, whether one is alone or in a couple. The book ends with (no surprise) a series of recipes for love spells that, one fervently wishes, readers will attempt only after absorbing all that Curott has to say.
