Light Upon Light

This collection of daily and weekly readings goes through the liturgical seasons of winter including Advent, Christmas and Epiphany. New voices such as Amit Majmudar and Scott Cairns are paired with well-loved classics by Dickens, Andersen, and Eliot.nnFor years I have been seeking a book which weaves scripture, prayer and the finest poetry and fiction into the devotional experience of Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany. Finally I have found it: an elegant and accessible gem with some classic texts and a rich selection from contemporary literature. This is not only a useful book, it is edifying and exciting readingthe perfect way for the literature lover to focus, meditate and celebrate this time of year.n Jill Pelez Baumgaertner, poet; Professor of English and Dean of Humanities and Theological Studies, Wheaton CollegennMaybe its not right to think of feasting during the somewhat penitential season of Advent, but that is what this book is: a sumptuous feast. nLauren F.
