The Life of the Soul: The Wisdom of Julian of Norwich, January 17, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: The Life of the Soul: The Wisdom of Julian of Norwich (Paperback)
This is the abridged version, which may be useful for some who want to get a quick overview of Julian's theology. I prefer the "whole story" contained in the full version for its elaboration of Julian's reasoning and elaborate and untraditional imagery of God/Christ as a mother who nurses us at his breast...

Wonderful Appetizer to the Full Works!, September 6, 2011
This review is from: The Life of the Soul: The Wisdom of Julian of Norwich (Paperback)
I was not familiar with Julian of Norwich before picking up this book. It is a beautiful little book. Through it, I saw God's great mercies in a new way, and that has caused me great joy and hope. I plan on getting the full book of Julian's writings, Sixteen Revelations of Divine Love. If this small book, which I am giving a definite 5 stars, merits only 2 stars as given by another reviewer, then the full works will probably make me absolutely blissful. I cannot wait!!
