About this Event
Numerous saints were held to have lived and performed miracles across Britain and beyond, from only decades after Christ's death, up to the eve of the Reformation. Today, stories of saintly heroes are all but forgotten, especially by the secular West. This is a wrong that art historian Amy Jeffs sets out to redress in this astonishing, beautiful study: she argues that we should treat saints’ stories with the reverence we treat myth or folklore.
Join us at Heffers Bookshop on the 24th of October as Amy Jeffs discusses her new book: Saints. The event will start at 6pm.
