Super Short Summary

Revelations of Divine Love by Julian of Norwich is the first book written in English by a woman and details a series of spiritual visions experienced by Julian during a severe illness in May 1373. These visions, which she believed were from God, include revelations about Christ's Passion, the Virgin Mary, and deep theological questions. Julian survived the illness, later becoming an anchorite, and expanded her meditations and writings over two decades to present her understanding of God's love, mercy, and the ultimate assurance that "all shall be well." The book addresses intense themes related to physical suffering.
