5.0 out of 5 stars An amazing book, January 7, 2000
This review is from: Being Home (Hardcover)
There's a long tradition in Celtic religious language of finding a way to turn even the smallest and most ordinary activities into meditation or prayer. We find it charming when we read the results in the context of mowing hay or bringing in the cows, but it's hard to imagine it in the context of today's daily round. Gunilla Norris has managed to do it -- for such things as paying bills and doing the laundry and setting the alarm -- and it's a marvel. The book is indispensable, and it is an extra bonus that it's beautifully designed and produced and so well-made that you'll be able to pass it on to your children and grandchildren. It has my highest recommendations.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is very, very special., November 3, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Being Home (Hardcover)
The pictures and the accompanying text are inspiring and absolutely perfect together so that the overall effect of this book is impossible to describe in words. Get it, read it again and again for the rest of your life, and you'll see what I mean.
