Pre-Owned Tidings: A Christmas Journey (Hardcover) 178474106X 9781784741068

Come with me to St Pancras Old Church on a little London hill... It s Christmas Eve and on this enchanted night Charoum the Angel of Silence can speak. As night turns to day he unfolds a resonant story of a little girl a homeless man and a fox...In the tradition of Charles Dickens and Dylan Thomas Tidings takes us on a journey into the heart of Christmas showing us celebrations down the ages and across the globe - as dawn sweeps from East Australia to Bethlehem from London to the Statue of Liberty in New York. This is Christmas in all its magic reminding us that it is a time not only of good tidings but of loneliness and longing compassion and connection. Beautifully illustrated and exquisitely musical Tidings is a poem to be read out loud and cherished.
