Oxford: Lion, 2000. A Fine unmarked copy with Fine dustjacket which is not price clipped. First UK edition. The author has been widely praised for the highly engaging way in which she enables readers of all beliefs and none to join her exploration of the nature of faith. The book is an entertaining blend of history, theology, story, etymology and memoir, the story of her gradual conversion through her accommodation of, and reconciliation with, the vocabulary of Christian faith. Her spiritual world is one rooted firmly in the mess of daily living, a world sure to be familiar to all, but it also reveals the richness of an ancient tradition that continues to evolve. **** NOT EX LIB **** R1.
