Journey afresh into the wonder, beauty and glory to be found in the age-old story of Christmas with this beautiful little gift book. Bringing together thought-provoking and inspiring poems and illustrations, A Quickening retells and reframes the Nativity story in a fresh way.

Weaving together different voices, forms and perspectives, this collection of poems forms a rich tapestry that offers new insights and moments to pause and reflect in the busiest period of the year.

The perfect accompaniment through the Advent period, A Quickening invites us to encounter this story for ourselves, with words that speak to the heart as well as the head.

Beautifully designed with pen and ink hand-drawn illustrations, this is a book to treasure or give as a meaningful gift this Christmas, for those who wish to experience this story anew and for those who do not know the story at all.
