The Showings of Julian of Norwich: A New Translation

In this contemporary translation of the spiritual classic, Revelations of Divine Love, acclaimed translator and interspiritual author Mirabai Starr breathes fresh life into the Middle English masterpiece of the fourteenth-century mystic, Dame Julian of Norwich. During a series of supernatural "Showings" following a near-death experience, Dame Julian is given a vision of Christ as the unconditionally loving Mother, and the cosmos itself as an entirely benevolent reality, devoid of sin and informed by "friendliness, courtesy, and tender forgiveness." In her radically optimistic view of the Creator and Creation, Julian of Norwich lifts us to the place where we can affirm with her, "All will be well and all will be well and every kind of thing shall be well."
