Woman's Talisman
by Mahrouyeh Maghzi


Woman’s Talisman is a guide for readers to examine their feelings and come to terms with their gender. The book follows a man who has been diagnosed with a terminal illness and has a short time to live. He is an echo of the original man, Adam, and is seeking the knowledge and compassion of Eve, the primal soul of a woman. This journey illuminates readers’ journeys and prompts them to think, dream and imagine the many realms of spiritual understanding. The journey proceeds through several days of experiences in this world and others. It is a process of enlightenment. “In two different parts of the world one man and one woman were mourning for different reasons, but for one ultimate goal, finding their beloved...the dying man was fighting with death’s glory to find his beloved, and the moaning woman was fighting with life’s glory to find her beloved sun.” Woman’s Talisman is written in a flowing, lyrical style similar to ancient texts and the bible. It is part poetry and part metaphorical narrative.
