Summary: A Heart Captured by LOVE
Comment: Sun at Midnight is Andrew Harvey's articulate attempt to share the horrendous nightmare of the "dark night" of his soul. In truth, there are no words for this spiritual experience. The necessary break with his spiritual teacher left Andrew's heart torn wide open, and as love for his teacher leaked out it was replaced by Love from the Divine Feminine who claims him for Her own and who gifts Andrew with compassionate spiritual leadership.
I found this to be a deeply inspiring book; one that will be easy to identify with for those who had or who are currently struggling with their own "dark nights". Andrew Harvey will provide the light of understanding for what you are experiencing, the courage to continue, and the firm belief that LOVE conquers all.

Summary: Sun at Midnight
Comment: Andrew's passionate telling of his incredibly courageous and soulful story is consummately engaging. His complete honesty in describing every detail and emotion he and his loving partner, Eryk, share, as they make this journey through a personal and professional hell in the seeking of truth, makes this book a compelling read. No one can turn a phrase or express an emotion the likes of Andrew Harvey. His zest for life, for love, for absolute clarity and goodness, makes his books worth following as he grows to even greater wisdom and consciousness. Knowing the passion of this man, and the high bar he sets for himself in his standards and morality, I know I can trust every word he says in his book. That being so, this is a must-read for every follower, every student of self-proclaimed gurus or spiritual masters who hold themselves as the true pathways to God. Andrew lets us know, God is there, directly available for each of us, not through the prism of the judgments, weaknesses, motives or self-servings of those that would proclaim otherwise.

Summary: Not what I thought
Comment: To say I was distraught after reading this book is an understatement. The first 34 pages (the prologue) remains between it's hard covers on my book shelf. The remaining 270+ pages have been removed. If you are looking for an all too graphic, albeit tragic, gay love story, this is the book to buy. If you are looking for insights into a "Dark Night of the Soul" experience as I was, you will likely not find it here. Even the worthy message of caution against following false gurus was lost in this non-spiritual story. Harvey is mixing two issues here, sexuality (in this case - gay rights) and spirituality, in a manner that was very disappointing to me. I would like to think that the true path is a bit more important than what Harvey has made it here. I think he knows that too. I now know better than to buy any of his other books.
