Beschreibung

Brida is the story of a young woman, Brida O Fern, and her path through the Wicca pagan tradition. Brida is only 21 years old when she meets a magician and asks to become a witch. The book compares the two classical forms of teaching, the Revelation (Tradition of the Sun) and the ritualistic (Tradition of the Moon). Love is the only way we have to bridge over to the spiritual world. When we love, we want to be better than we already are, and love makes us better.

Klappentext

New York TimesBestseller

From Paulo Coelho, the beloved author of The Alchemist, comes a luminous and mystical novel about the search for magic, meaning, and the other half of one's soul.

Brida follows a young Irish woman consumed by a hunger she cannot name --- a longing for something deeper than ordinary life can offer.

Seeking answers, she finds two enigmatic teachers: the Magus, a solitary wise man at the edge of a forest, and Wicca, a powerful practitioner who initiates her into ancient spiritual traditions. As Brida's gifts awaken, she must also navigate the pull of two very different loves --- and reckon with the possibility that becoming who she is meant to be will require choices that cannot be undone.

A quietly haunting and ultimately inspiring story, Bridareveals the secrets connecting vocation, desire, and the lifetimes it takes to finally become whole.
