The Crossway, by Guy Stagg. A book has just been published in which the author describes a long pilgrimage made in 2013 - from London to Jerusalem. In large part a search for healing from suicidal depression. It is a remarkable and often deeply painful story told with great honesty in carefully crafted prose. I am posting a link to a detailed review here. Extracts from the book will be read on Monday to Friday this week as BBC Radio 4's "Book of the Week".
