About the book

"Revelations of Divine Love" by Julian of Norwich is a medieval work of Christian mystical devotion written between the 14th and 15th centuries. The earliest surviving book in English known to be written by a woman, it recounts sixteen visions Julian received during a near-death illness in 1373. After recovering, she became an anchoress and spent decades developing her insights into two versions: the Short Text and Long Text. Her mystical experience and theological reflections have captivated readers for centuries.
