Mary’s Vision: Mary Magdalene and the Quest for Gender Equality is an historical novel set in first century Palestine and Gaul. Its storyline is Mary’s desire to teach about her mentor, Jesus, despite the strict paternalism of that time which forbade women to instruct men. Mary’s Vision casts her as an early seeker of gender equality, determined to spread Jesus’s words regardless of the dangers. The book offers a plausible and inspiring life story for this fascinating but little understood, and often misrepresented, female apostle.
