Book excerpt: The STARLIGHT, the SEA, the BEACH and the ANGEL WAS FIRST published under the title THE ANGEL OF LAODICEAExcerpts from reviews of The STARLIGHT, the SEA, the BEACH and the ANGEL when published under the title THE ANGEL OF LAODICEA:I am very drawn to its quiet certainties... with constant references to art and music this is a book with a profound understanding of the spiritual importance of created beauty. But we have to pursue that beauty, accept its demands, come to terms with its insight into what the protagonist finally brings himself to call the 'Most High'. Life is about choosing and the responsibility is ours alone, but with angelic help if we accept it. How I delighted in the central theme of the novel! This is a wonderful book.SISTER WENDY BECKETTThis is a book to be read and read again...This contemplative gaze, the ability to be present to reality and present to oneself without trying to evaluate, without thinking about oneself but focussed entirely on the activity in hand: this can be, as in the novel, the moment when time stands still, the meeting place with God.THE CATHOLIC HERALDThis book is one you are likely to pick up again and again.THE IRISH NEWS
