For those curious about mysticism and its appeal.

"Sensible Ecstasy" explores mysticism's deep attraction.

You’ll understand how mysticism enriches your life.

Discover how 20th-century French thinkers explore the intriguing connection between mysticism and secular thought in Amy Hollywood's insightful book, "Sensible Ecstasy."

This text investigates the attraction to excessive forms of mysticism among 20th-century French intellectuals, demonstrates the work the figure of the mystic does for these thinkers, and asks why resolutely secular intellectuals are drawn to affective, bodily, and denigrated forms of mysticism.
