"Wise, profound and powerful.... I cannot imagine a better spiritual introduction to the essential teaching of Julian of Norwich."
-Greg Garrett, PhD, professor of English, Baylor University; author, The Other Jesus and The Prodigal

-Tara M. Owens, MTS, CSD, spiritual director, Anam Cara Ministries; senior editor, Conversations Journal

"Infused with quiet love, Mary Earle's commentary brings readers to Julian's revelations with tenderness, insight and respectful intimacy."
-Suzanne Guthrie, founder, EdgeOfEnclosure.org

"Mary Earle accompanies Julian's text with what Julian herself might call 'light touchings' that illuminate and translate the medieval visionary's rich theology for contemporary readers."
