the spiritual quest is timeless and ongoing. For David tacey, the quest incorporates key issues such as the redefining of our human identity, a new consciousness about Aboriginal reconciliation, a recognition of youth culture and its spiritual directions, our quest for environmental integrity, and our responsibility to community and to each other. Ultimately, the quest is for a re-enchantment that enables us to overcome our alienation, allowing us, at the beginning of this new century, to build a more harmonious and integrated Australian society. Here, with great exuberance, is David tacey's visionary scholarship and devotion to purpose - clearing away the cobwebs and slander and overburden which have stifled and diminished the culture of spirituality in Australia. p>David's work is not just about spirituality; it is, in its function and its lilt, profoundly spiritual - vibrantly so - in that it cultivates and heartens and defends the deepest, most true and lovely possibilities for this country. - Michael Leunig

I chose this book as I had finished
Religion as Metaphor/not literal and David Tacey suggested a new way to see Religion as Enchantment.
I found his premise very persuasive and quite convincing. He tries very hard to illustrate his views, referencing God in Nature and the much wider perspective of the “common” ground with indigenous peoples and historical groupings..
The author’s presentation of Myth is fascinating.
Very well worth reading
