What if Mary Magdalene were much more than a biblical figure? What if her memory still lives on here in Provence, in the gestures, the celebrations, the silences passed down from generation to generation?
This book explores the living memory of Mary Magdalene in Provence.
It was born from an intimate connection, felt since childhood, with the one known as the Apostle to the Apostles. It was born in the stones and winds of Provence, in the luminous shadow of Sainte-Baume mountain, where so many women have sought the truth of their own path.
Through ancient texts, folk traditions, sacred places, and inner meditations, I invite you to walk in her footsteps—not just to know her, but to approach her, listen to her, and perhaps even recognize her.
Mary Magdalene is a free, fervent, and faithful woman. A woman who endured exile, pain, and silence, and who chose love as her answer. She still speaks to us today—in our doubts, our passions, our wounds, our rebirths.
This book is a tribute: to Mary Magdalene, to Provence, and to a people’s fidelity to their spiritual heritage.
Reviews and testimonials
| I have barely closed this beautifully crafted book, written with such profound insight. I am still enveloped by the intoxicating fragrance of this pure-hearted woman whose words resonate even today. Thank you, Véronique Flayol, for this initiatory journey into the depths of Provençal spirituality and for keeping the Magdalenian spirit alive in our traditions. Jean-Michel | I just finished your book. Thank you, it’s wonderful. I’ve further enriched my knowledge about Mary Magdalene, but I also learned a lot about you, and I imagine this book wasn’t necessarily easy to write. Mary Magdalene remains for me the Apostle to the Apostles, the first and noblest of feminists, and the one whose message even the Church refused to acknowledge. Yet, she, imbued with so much humanity, is to words what the mind is to the body, so present and yet so intangible… Christophe | A beautiful book, beautifully written. This book taught me so much. About Provence, through Mary Magdalene. And about the story of Véronique, an extraordinary woman so passionate about her city, its traditions, and Mary Magdalene. I highly recommend it. You’ll be surprised. Thank you, Véronique Flayol. Cédric |
