Julian of Norwich, a brave and modern, mystic of the fourteenth century, whose drive and teachings sprang from visions that came to her during a serious illness at the age of thirty. She recorded these visions in her remarkable book Showings. Grounded in the pain of Christ's Passion, her message is that God will make all things well. Yet, in the face of suffering and pain, Julian also asks, 'How shall all things be well?' It is a questions we still ask today. Superb illustration, calligraphy, and spiritual insight combine to give a fascinating account of Julian's life bring Showings to life.
