Fool''s Journey: A mosey round the two Great Commandments

About Paul Nelson

Paul Nelson was born in London in 1952. He attended Catholic schools but like many others abandoned religion as a young adult. Trained as a graphic designer he went to work in what was then Fleet Street in the production department of a national newspaper. The book describes experiences and encounters that encouraged him to question materialist orthodoxy. He was ordained in the Church of England in 1984 and served in traditional parishes for over thirty years. Though rooted in Christian devotion Paul Nelson has (as the book makes clear) a fascination with the sacred in all its guises and with the many forms of inner-life exploration currently practiced in supposedly secular England. He lives in Suffolk and is a Canon Emeritus of St Edmundsbury Cathedral.
