Legends from Lindisfarne: Diverse and Inclusive Saints

A trans monk. A mermaid saint. A headless healer. A werewolf refugee.

Asexual Fairy Tales author Elizabeth Hopkinson lends her numinous storytelling voice to lesser-known saints from Celtic lands in the age of Patrick, Columba and Cuthbert - alongside some of their influencers and inheritors.

From Brigid the Time Traveller to C dmon the Socially Anxious, from Brendan the Respecter of First Nations to the Black Madonna of Montevergine who protects same-sex couples and traditional third genders, this collection of tales from the past has much to teach us about diversity and inclusion today.
