About this listen
On May 8, 1373, 30-year-old Julian of Norwich, sick and near death, had a series of visions of Christ. In these 16 visions she learnt about God's loving nature. God in Julian's visions was not angry and wrathful. Instead, the three properties of God were presented as life, love and light, and all of His creation was good, including his servant, man. In Julian's version, Man is not to blame for his sin; instead it is something that he must experience and overcome in his spiritual journey with God.
The version of Christian theology presented in Revelations of Divine Love - the first published book in English attributed to a woman - was highly liberal and incredibly progressive for its time. The book contains some of the most profound spiritual writing ever written and remains a perennial favorite among Christians.

Interesting
An interesting book, especially given the author.
It's a shame the narrator performed it as if it were a Mills and Boon novel for some reason.

Pure truth and wisdom from an English Mystic
If you want to know the real nature of God and haven’t been able to relate to God as portrayed by “the church”….get ready….everything you need to know has been delivered by Mother Julian.

Excellent
A wonderful translation. I started reading/studying Julian of Norwich in 2004, 15 years have gone by! I wholeheartedy recommend this translation, it flows, it sounds good and is quite beautiful. It reminds me of Carmen Acevedo Butcher's translation of The Cloud of Unknowing, a marvellous companion-piece, I dare to suggest.

A book like no other
I think it is now three times that I have listened to this audiobook. I intend to start listening to it again. Not every day but as a background to my life, which is what it has become. It is so deep and full. I will never grow out of it or become tired of it. I hope to listen on a roll perhaps for ever.

Divine Love
Beautifully read, modern translation of Julian's visions if God's love for us. God's all encompassing love for His creation and people that she interprets from the 14th century is a message we all should hear.

Reading style doesn't work for me
Fantastic content, but I stopped listening as the reader portrays it, to my ear, like a Mills & Boone romance.
This wasn't too bad at the start, but as the content deepens, it jars heavily - at least it did for me. Each to their own though.
