Looking East in Winter by Rowan Williams
Rowan Williams considers the Eastern tradition of Christianity and the lessons it may have to offer for the Western church and society.
The language is precise and exact, yet also evocative and elegant* Church Times *
An austere read, reflecting a lifetime’s intellectual engagement with Orthodoxy. It is at the same time full of warmth. Williams' account of holy folly is wonderful. * The Tablet *
There is no theological writer in English whose prose is more lucid, more crystalline, more careful, than Lord Williams of Oystermouth, known more widely as Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury from 2002 to 2012 ... Looking East in Winter is a brilliant exploration of modern Orthodox theology ... Archbishop Rowan has completed another remarkable book, the reading of which is itself a meditative and nourishing experience. * Medium *
