"Sabina Flanagan's biography is a solid introductory
account...."
-"Village Voice
"Flanagan's book would be the one that I would recommend as a first
introduction to Hildegard."
-"Commonweal
"An excellent biography of an extraordinary medieval visionary...a
fascinating book about a miraculous life."
-"Kirkus
"It is the great virtue of Sabina Flanagan's cool, scholarly, and
reflective biography that it sets her story so firmly in her own
age....A woman of electrifying visionary power, fascinating, often
enigmatic and clearly of great presence, she was also a woman with
a will and prejudices of her own....It is as such, wrinkles and
all, that Sabina Flanagan presents her to us, and we must be
grateful for the historical balance of her picture."
-"New York Review of Books
"Sabina Flanagan's biography is a solid introductory account."
-"Voice Literary Supplement
