'So I will write in English,  pressing new words from this beautiful plain language spoken by all. Not courtly French to introduce God politely. Not church Latin to construct arguments. English to show it as it is. Even though it is not safe to do so.' From the author of Miles to Go before I Sleep comes I,  Julian,  the account of a medieval woman who dares to tell her own story,  battling grief,  plague,  the church and societal expectations to do so. Compelled by the powerful visions she had when close to death,  Julian finds a way to live a life of freedom - as an anchoress,  bricked up in a small room on the side of a church - and to write of what she has seen. The result,  passed from hand to hand,  is the first book to be written by a woman in English. Tender,  luminous,  meditative and powerful,  Julian writes of her love for God,  and God's love for the whole of creation. 'All shall be well,  and all shall be well,  and all manner of thing shall be well.' 'Written with profound insight,  spiritual and psychological,  and a rare sensitivity to the everyday world of the fourteenth century,  I,  Julian is a brilliantly illuminating companion to one of the greatest works of spiritual writing in English.' Rowan Williams,  Magdalene College,  Cambridge University
