If you feel like the world is too noisy, if you want to shut yourself away for a while for some peace, to figure out how to live in the world, if you're hurting or grieving and nothing helps try reading this. A story about a young woman who chooses the enclosed life of an Anchoress, locked away in the room of a church for the rest of her life. It's also a wonderfully researched medieval setting and the author has written a thesis about virginity and female agency and saints that burst out of dragons!
