At the outset of this short series of reflections on sorrow in both Irish and English, the author invites the reader in order to engage fully with what he has written, to quieten the heart and spirit. What then follows are voices of seven characters from the Lent story: Mary of Magdala; Malchus; Procula, wife of Pilate; Judith, mother of Barabbas: Nicodemus; Dismas, the good thief; and Tamar, the woman at the well. The reflections are accompanied and assisted by insightful photographs from Brid Dunne. All author royalties from the book goes towards the education and care of two young people in Uganda.

Description
In Seven Voices of Sorrow we hear from seven characters from the Lenten story: Mary of Magdala; Malchus; Procula, wife of Pilate; Judith, mother of Barabbas; Nicodemus; Dismas, the good thief; and Tamar, the woman at the well. Each voice has known great sorrow and yet exudes compassion, reassurance and fortitude.
This sensory prayer book is for individual or group use and combines a mixture of Franciscan and Augustinian spirituality. The reader is invited to gaze on an image, read the reflection (in English or in Irish) and listen to how their soul responds.
