Holy Mother!: Seriously Weird Sightings of the Virgin Mary [Illustrated] [Paperback]

Danny Piccolo (Author), Stacey Hood (Author)


Available from these sellers.



Book Description

July 23, 2002
Holy Mother! She gets around, that gal, and now her myriad miraculous appearances are captured on film and in living black-and-white (as opposed to in marble, glow-in-the-dark dashboard plastic, or tasteful acrylic paint on black velvet).

Look! There she goes again: dancing on stage at a Madonna concert in Vegas. Wait! Isn’t that her riding hogs with the Angels (Hell’s Angels, that is)? And sure, sure, we all know she’s been seen in many a tortilla, but have you ever encountered Our Lady of Masa Harina? Who’s that white water rafting? Giving Air Jordan a high-five? Yep, that’s our Mary, not exactly the unathletic, retiring type she’s made out to be in Renaissance art.

But you have to look closely at these photos, courtesy of the Institute of Seriously Weird Virgin Mary Sightings (ISWVMS), for Mary’s appearances are, like those of Elvis, unannounced, inexplicable and, well, seriously weird.

Wait, don’t bite into that cinnamon Danish…look closer! It’s not just a swirl of filling, it’s…it’s…her!
