This revised text, first delivered as a lecture at Swedenborg Hall, offers a thought-provoking introduction to Blake's singular experience of the city and its connection to Swedenborg's spiritual tradition.

This book is an ideal starting point for anyone seeking to understand Blake's work and its enduring relevance. Hardcover, 60 pages.
