Of Heaven on Earth, musician Clare Bowditch writes: Since I was a teenager, Stephanie Dowrick's work has been absolutely central to my understanding of curiosity, spirit, faith and the possibility of happiness. The wisdom in her pages has comforted me in dark times and brought me insights that I fear I may otherwise have missed. With deep intelligence and enormous heart, Stephanie has created a companion for anyone seeking beauty, comfort and insight.
