Halo, nama saya Finn, dan saya akan membantu kamu memahami buku ini.

Ini dia, dijelaskan seperti untuk anak usia 10 tahun:

Julian dari Norwich sakit parah, mengira akan mati, ketika ia mendapat serangkaian penglihatan yang jelas tentang Kristus yang menderita di salib. Ia sembuh, memikirkan apa yang telah ia lihat selama bertahun tahun, dan menulis buku ini tentang Allah yang penuh kasih yang menjaga kita tetap aman. Kata katanya yang paling terkenal sederhana: semua akan baik baik saja. Edisi Grace Warrack menjaga kehangatan bahasa Inggris lamanya sambil membuatnya mudah dibaca. Buku ini tenang, baik, dan sangat menghibur.
