Those more familiar with Estella Conwill Majozo as a poet than as a mystic will be delighted with her new book, Butterfly Blessings in the Face of Cancer. The book contains about 20 new song-poems, literally composed in the desert, and sung with a full heart. Additionally, Estella Conwill Majozo the mystic blends the poems with about 20 women's prayers and stories of their metaphorical and actual deliverance from breast cancer, and the purification (cleansing) and sanctification (restoration of health) of their bodies. Majozo's presentation of the process of their return-to-wellness should be "required reading" for cancer patients, their medical and spiritual care-givers, and their loved ones. In the last chapter, Behavioral Medicine specialist William L. Conwill provides a commentary that places Majozo's Butterfly Blessings in the Face of Cancer in a philosophical and scientific context.
