Über den Autor
ESTHER DE WAAL has written widely on both the Benedictine tradition and the recovery of the religious imagination. When Seeking God first appeared over thirty years ago, it opened up the insights of monastic life to lay people. She continues to live in the Welsh Borders, the place that has given her stability throughout her life.
