‘The growth of the spirit is perhaps the most beautiful revelation of God’s love that we are privileged to see, and like all beginnings of life, it is about the secret emergence of something new and vulnerable in the darkness.’

Sheila Cassidy

In Sharing the Darkness, Sheila Cassidy – a leading figure of the hospice movement, and survivor, as a young doctor, of torture for daring to give medical care to an opponent of the Pinochet regime in Chile – meditates on the mystery of our wounded humanity, trying to wrest meaning and a spirituality of caring out of the reality of suffering.

The Pocket Library of Spiritual Wisdom comprises some of the very best Christian writing published by Darton, Longman and Todd since its foundation in 1959.

Sheila Cassidy has written honest and wise books on suffering and healing making her one of the UK’s best-loved and most popular writers on pastoral care and personal growth. She is widely known for her work in the hospice movement, and as a young doctor who survived torture for daring to give medical care to an opponent of the Pinochet regime in Chile.
