Book description
A moving and tender meditation on loving, living and dying by one of
the greatest Anglican spiritual writers. Michael Mayne, author of three
of the best-selling spirituality titles of recent years, Learning to
Dance, Pray, Love, Remember, and A Year Lost And Found, set out to
complete a final book that would tackle the linked questions of what is
the solid ground of a belief which for him has proved authentic and
survived into old age, and how ageing may affect us physically, mentally
and spiritually. On completing it, he discovered that he was suffering
from cancer of the jaw, and in a nine-month journal he reflects (among
much else) on whether his faith stands firm, and where God may be found
in the challenging country of cancer. The Enduring Melody is a moving
and tender meditation on loving, living and dying by one of the greatest
living Anglican spiritual writers. Michael Mayne is the former head of
religious programmes at the BBC and Dean Emeritus of Westminster. A
