Here Richard Harries introduces the poet and reflects on 24 of his greatest poems, six for each of the four weeks of Advent, including 'Redemption', 'The Country Parson' and 'The Temple'.Each week focuses on a different theme:Week 1: Winning the HeartWeek 2: Held by ChristWeek 3: WelcomeWeek 4: All PraiseAfter each poem Richard Harries reflects on the poet?s sense of the divine and draws out spiritual insights for the reader to think about as they prepare to celebrate Christ?s appearing.The result is a book that readers will want to return to over and over again, whether during Advent or in any other season of the year.
