Product Description

•••••

Set against the backdrop of a dystopian, techno-driven future, The Body of This Death: Letters from the Last Archbishop of Lancaster follows the life of an archbishop as he awaits his execution.

Uniquely structured as a collection of letters, this fictional work leads the reader in discerning the general contours of the events that took place over the last several years of the Archbishop’s life, including his imprisonment, trial, and eventual sentence.

The Archbishop’s correspondence, including his so-called “posthumous” letters, presents his meditations on embodiment, death, and the nature of reality. The Body of This Death invites the reader to enter the labyrinth of the Archbishop’s thoughts as he anticipates his ever-approaching martyrdom.

Hardcover. 184 pages.
