Description

Amanda Bonnick’s unusual, uplifting and imaginative collection of sixty poems, in a diary covering mid-2019 to Easter 2021, is the outcome of her period as Poet in Residence at Worcester Cathedral. It is a highly personal reflection on her experiences during that time, a ‘pilgrimage’.

The poems cover her profound faith, her interviews with the groups making up the Cathedral community…and her love for the building itself, which she describes as ‘a place of solace and refuge and beauty’. They tell their stories straightforwardly, without self-indulgence or overstatement, and relate not only to the Bible but to today’s everyday life…
