Description: |
This book is based on several hundred letters, exchanged between Robert Ellsberg and Sr Wendy, on an almost daily basis, during the last three years of Sister Wendy's life. Initially they dealt with lives of saints, the meaning of holiness, and the spiritual life, but they soon expanded into a deep and intimate exchange that encompassed our whole lives, the subject of love, suffering, joy, and the presence of grace in everyday life.
For Sister Wendy, by calling and temperament, a hermit, this involved an expansion of her spiritual and emotional horizons that prepared her for her final days.
"To read Dearest Sister Wendy... is to be touched by a living flame of grace. I am roundly convinced that it is impossible to overstate the blessedness and wonder of this remarkable book!" Michelle Jones, editor, Ruth Burrows: Essential Writings |
