Based on a series of retreat addresses to clergy, parishes and religious communities given over a period of five years, this is one of the most acclaimed guides to Christian contemplative prayer. First published 30 years ago, it is truly a modern spiritual classic. Robert Llewelyn provides a practical yet profound guide for anyone venturing on the path of prayer and contemplation. He explores Julian of Norwich's way of prayer and discovers its enduring wisdom for today. He also finds essential insights into the contemplative life from Julian's contemporary, the anonymous author of The Cloud of Unknowing. The treasures of this medieval English mystical tradition are brought to fresh life with simple and homely examples that illustrate their lasting appeal and power for today.

    The Good Book Stall

    Average rating of0.0

    This is not a new book though it is new to Canterbury Press (indeed I have one of the earlier DLT versions gracing my shelf already), however it is indeed worthy of this reprint being a classic work from Robert Llewelyn. With Julian of Norwich having been made a Doctor of the Catholic Church recently it is indeed a timely and welcomed reprint of a lovely and gentle but thoroughly engaging book on how to undertake contemplative prayer that also introduces us thoroughly to Julian of Norwich and her teachings and insights. That it also incorporates a consideration of The Cloud of Unknowing alongside Julian only increases the joy of reading this book. Whether you are new to contemplative praying or an old hand and member of a Julian Group, whether you too had a copy of this book and read it many years ago or have never heard of it before, I can honestly say that this is well worth reading, and it is good to see it get a fresh airing.
