A Book of English Belief
by Joanna M Hughes
Joanna showed me the most extraordinary range of people, like Sidney Smith, who said that paradise was eating pâté to the sound of trumpets, and I fell in love with the poems of George Herbert – particularly the one where someone comes into the room and it’s love itself. Love opens itself to you and says, I’m yours, come and eat with me and you shall never be alone again.
