'I was completely hooked and considerably moved by the life and thoughts of this exceptional woman' - JEREMY IRONS 'It is as if we have finally found the lost autobiography of one of the medieval world's most important women.' - JANINA RAMIREZ 'A beautiful, intensely moving achievement' - A.N. WILSON In 1347, the first pestilence rages across the land. The young Julian of Norwich encounters the strangeness of death: first her father, then later her husband and her child. When she falls ill herself, she encounters mystical visions that bring comfort and concern.
