Some phenomena are so extraordinary that it can be difficult to know how to approach them in a balanced yet illuminating way - and the mass visions of the Virgin Mary at Zeitoun, witnessed by hundreds of thousands of people over a period of about eighteen months, certainly come into that category. In this book, Musso takes on such a challenge, skilfully grounding her Jungian hermeneutic in a deeply informed and conscientious engagement with political, economic, and cultural realities. Almost as extraordinary as her subject matter itself are the courage, creativity, open-mindedness, and rigorous, level-headed scholarship with which she navigates it. An impressive achievement. Professor Roderick Main, University of Essex, UK.
