Since its rediscovery in 1934, The Book of Margery Kempe has generally been judged as over-emotional and naïve.
Naoë Kukita Yoshikawa argues instead that The Book of Margery Kempe is a creative experience of memory as spiritual progress. Yoshikawa explores Margery's meditational experience in the context of the visual and verbal iconography and provides a comprehensive analysis of Margery's meditative experience as it is structured in the book, paying particular attention to develop a coherent theology of the five major meditational expreiences that influence Kempe's spiritual progress.
Naoë Kukita Yoshikawa teaches in the faculty of humanities and social sciences at Shizuoka University. She has published widely on Margery Kempe's life and work.

Margery Kempe's Meditations: The Context of Medieval Devotional Literature, Liturgy and Iconography
Hey, Michael Hanlon: I don't care what you think! I didn't pick up this book to learn the opinion of someone I've never heard of. I picked it up because it says "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" on it and I'm a dork.
Despite warnings from my brother, I still read the book which did have a few interesting moments but bizarrely I felt I had more answers to my burning questions reading Adams' series than this book. Not only does Hanlon gloss over scientific concepts assuming his readers have at least a high-school level (maybe higher) understanding of Physics, it is an insult to Douglas Adams and overall disingenuous to claim that his inspiration comes from the science raised in Adams' books. There are plenty of other more interesting books (many cited in his bibliography). Go read those and skip this one (though I can hardly trust you'll listen to me since I of course didn't listen to my brother).
