Through symbols decorating old pairs of shoes and no-holds barred personal reflections, In Our Shoes tells seven women's stories of childhood and aging, love and loss, success and failure, depression and healing. From India, Jamaica and the United States, the "Shoe Women" debunk the myth that our mistakes and failures keep us from measuring up to other people, as they inspire us to accept and value the full range of our human experience.

Any Woman can fit in these shoes!,
By Carol Sanger (Hereford, AZ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: In Our Shoes: Seven Women Reveal Their Soles (Paperback)
These are seven big, powerful, distinct voices. The courage and resilience of the women behind those voices make this one of the best books of this type I have read in a LONG time. It is one of those books we all need when we are dragging, when we need to refresh that connection with our community and maybe our community isn't right there just now. While we may or may not agree that life is one long birth canal, these women clearly see Light at the end of their tunnels and that Light has transformed them in a way that is simple and direct. There is no hocus pocus here, no new age mumbo-jumbo, just survivors who held on to their senses of humor every step of the way and who can write so well that we can share in their journey.
5.0 out of 5 stars

"In Our Shoes" is revealing, riveting and real. It presents a clear path for self-discovery and survival; of perspective from lessons learned and a visionary promise for all you can become. A recommended read for seekers of a better way.

This review is from: In Our Shoes: Seven Women Reveal Their Soles (Paperback)
"In Our Shoes" is a must read! The stories of these 7 women, told in an interesting Past-Present-Future series by each, provide a generous dose of reassurance of the power we forget we have, alone or together. Regardless of our circumstances, we women link together in eerie, synchronistic ways throughout our lives. This is one of the unique gifts to our gender from the Great Creator. And the incredible gift of this book reminds us that in our own communities we can always find healing, comforting links with other women -- if we will only look and reach out to each other, as these women did. What powerful and ultimately healing stories they tell! Read this wonderful book for inspiration, comfort and Truth. You'll go back to it again and again, as I have.
