  This book will be a revelation to all those who search for spiritual strength, for here the authentic ring of genuine spiritual experience can be found. Originally published in a leading religious weekly during the 1930s and 1940s, these anonymous letters have a timeless quality, which transcends and transfigures contemporary problems while answering them in a deeply spiritual way. It has been said that all art should be anonymous, free of personal associations, and so it is here, where - though the approach changes - the wisdom that informs the letters remains the same, communicating a robust discipline along with great warmth and understanding. Each letter is illustrated with a carefully chosen quotation from one of the great mystics or spiritual poets. The result is a deeply satisfying and inspiring work imbued with sensitive instruction and inspiration.
