"Transgressive Devotion will take your breath away, at first, but it will return it to you in new form and with new energy, if you follow where it leads. With Wigg-Stevenson as your guide and muse, you're invited on a pilgrimage through (in)famous performance art pieces and real-life theological discussions. By keeping company with others feared and familiar, ancient and contemporary, Wigg-Stevenson seeks to open herself and her readers to new ways of being faithful. Beautifully written, profound, and moving." -- Ellen T. Armour, Vanderbilt Divinity School, USA
"Gorgeous, moving, and marvellously queering, Wigg-Stevenson's work feels like falling through a seriesof trap doors located at the foundations of our faith" -- Emily Scott, Pastor, Dreams and Visions, Baltimore
