 The three great monotheistic religions all have their esoteric schools, some hidden in plain sight, some thriving in secret, others barely surviving. Here are books that explore and preserve the “heresies” that official religions have tried to suppress, such as the Cathars and Gnostics in Christianity, the Kabbalists in Judaism and the Sufis in Islam. Our title The Woman with the Alabaster Jar was published in 1993, ten years before it was used by Dan Brown to develop the plot of The Da Vinci Code (and was mentioned by name in that bestseller).
