The Eros of Everyday Life by Susan Griffin

The Eros of Everyday Life by Susan Griffin

In her award-winning examination of the nature of war, A Chorus of Stones, critically acclaimed author and feminist Susan Griffin showed new ways of thinking about society and war, about private and public lives. In The Eros of Everyday Life, she once again takes readers on a startling journey, showing the profound connections between religion and philosophy, science and nature, Western thought and the role of women, and the supremacy of abstract thought over the forces of life. Featuring the brilliant original title essay that is nothing less than an intellectual and emotional exploration of the nature of Western society itself, as well as Susan Griffin's best previously published essays of the past decade, The Eros of Everyday Life combines the beautiful lyricism and sensibility of a poet with the intellectual rigor of one of the finest and most original minds writing today.

Susan Griffin, a poet, feminist writer, essayist, dramatist, and filmmaker, has earned scores of honors for her work as a poet, feminist writer, essayist, playwright, and filmmaker. Her novel A Chorus of Stones was a Pulitzer Prize and National Book Critics Circle Award finalist. She is a frequent contributor to Newsweek, the New York Times Book Review, and numerous other publications, having received an Emmy, a MacArthur Grant, and a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. She is a resident of Berkeley, California.
