Description
Caryll Houselander (1901-54) an English Catholic laywoman, artist, and visionary was driven by a strong identification with the poor that enabled her to, in fresh and insightful ways, proclaim the "Christing of the World." Wright interweaves texts and images into an intimate encounter with a fascinating woman, a "divine eccentric," and a gifted reader of souls.

I can't really be objective about this book as I owe it a great spiritual debt. I will always be grateful that I found this book when I needed it.
I do realize now that much of what Houselander says is not terribly original. But she says it so accessibly and makes it so clear. I finished reading
