The Poems of Rowan Williams

The Poems of Rowan Williams gathers all of the poems from the Archbishop's two previous collections, After Silent Centuries (1994) and Remembering Jerusalem (2001), and includes some more recent ones as well. The subject matter of these sixty-five poems ranges broadly - the natural world, works of art, a visit to the Holy Land at Easter, ancient Celtic artifacts, a group of thin girls waiting at a bus stop, grief at the loss of loved ones.
