View BookHeroines of Avalon & Other Tales by Ayn Cates Sullivan, Ph.D. is a well researched selection of short stories. The book won a gold COVR Visionary Award and a silver Nautilus Book Award. Readers are transported to the time of legend and revisits deities and legendary female characters linked to Welsh and British mythology. In this book, the author shares her insights and her journey to discovering her past, a journey that compelled her to research the extraordinary characters in her book. Her research into the myth of the Holy Grail creates beautiful mythical encounters, bringing to life “untold” stories of characters like the Goddess Arianrhod, Blodeuweddi, Iouga, Elen, also known as “Elen of the Ways,” as well as two Arthurian female Grail Knights, Elaine, mother of Galahad, and the first Grail Champion, a woman by the name of Dindraine. The stories begin with an informative commentary that shares the author’s personal journey and offers elements of myth and the culture around which these characters evolved. The reader is invited to explore the feminine visage of God/Goddess, and the role of some of the heroic women in the lives and history of legendary heroes like King Arthur.
But this is a warning – Heroines of Avalon & Other Tales is not about saints, virgins, or other well behaved women. The heroines are mostly chthonic deities, who challenge social norms. Most of the characters are pre-Christian, and are more aligned with the ancient Brehon Laws, which support equality of the sexes. In the Celtic world, especially Ireland and Wales, a Goddess of Sovereignty in the form of a woman chose who served as king. It’s not up for debate, but just part of Celtic Tradition. Remember Lady of the Lake giving the sword to Arthur? She is a thinly disguised Goddess of Sovereignty. Many of these tales were initially recorded on paper by Christian monks. Although I’m grateful for their work, many of the women were demonized, including Guinevere.
The author writes of the book: “The patriarchy has done its best to erase feisty females from history and mythology, and yet here they are – as disturbing and fabulous as ever! Heroines of Avalon does sometimes stir up feminist discord which earns the book mixed reviews, and it is designed to do so. These stories are meant to have the reader rethink history – or ‘her-story.’ How is it that the tale of Dindraine, the first person to achieve the Holy Grail, was swept under the rug? I even asked a colleague in Oxford who shrugged and suggested I write about her! And why should the flower deity Bloeuwedd (which can be re-visited in the Welsh mythological collection, the Mabinogi) be cursed for being a flower deity?Aren’t we tired of the demonization of women? These tales are designed to expose the challenges, even horror, of what our female ancestors might have endured, and then free them from their stories so they can choose again. This is a book for women who are questioning history, religion, and their roles in society. I hope you find it a challenging and yet rewarding read.”
