A Day and a Life

By Penelope Wilcock and Penelope Wilcock Collins

Book Overview

The monastic rhythm of life at St Alcuin's means that all is peaceful on the surface. But beneath there are strong currents as each monk contends with his own hopes, fears, challenges, and temptations.

Not every monk is settled and secure. Sadness permeates the monastery when it is discovered early one morning that one of the novices, Brother Cedd, has disappeared. It quickly becomes clear that disturbance in the life of one can impact many.

As the day goes on, the question looms: will Brother Cedd return? And what will be the consequences if he doesn't?

In this moving conclusion to the first The Hawk and the Dove series, Pen Wilcock describes a single day in the life of the community, weaving a touching, frank, and entertaining tapestry of monastic life.
