Description
The White Stone: A Book of Simple Wisdom As we navigate the changes and losses that come with growing older, Esther de Waal reflects on her own journey of solitude and transformation. Following a period of illness, she bid farewell to a beloved family home and the Welsh border landscape that had inspired some of her most profound writing. In this characteristic style, she seeks to find deeper spiritual understanding in everything. In The White Stone, de Waal draws on the wealth of Christian tradition, scripture, and monastic and Celtic spiritualities to help navigate the inevitable sense of loss that accompanies change. A small pebble from a river that ran through her garden serves as a symbol of hope - a reminder of the new identity promised by God. This book offers simple yet profound wisdom for those coping with change in their own lives, finding solace and guidance in the depths of faith and spirituality.
