Caryll Houselander: Essential Writings

 by Wendy Wright

Caryll Houselander (1901-54) an English Catholic laywoman, artist, and visionary was driven by a strong identification with the poor that enabled her to, in fresh and insightful ways, proclaim the "Christing of the World." Wright interweaves texts and images into an intimate encounter with a fascinating woman, a "divine eccentric," and a gifted reader of souls.
