This book epitomises, I hope, how, in contemporary times, the spiritual quest takes its form. We are each hooded falcons desperate for light and flight.’

With a mix of the humorous, the poetic and the profound, Terry Monagle offers up his experience of faith and joy in life in the scrutiny of proximate and terminal cancer. He unsentimentally shares the questioning his love of life engenders when faced with the problem of having to let go all that he loves in the physical world, from the beauty he finds in the natural environment to his relationships with family, friends and the Church. As he does so he finds comfort whispering to him, and makes sense of his fate through its service to others. Click here to view Terry's preface in the book.
