What is The Enduring Melody about?

A moving and tender meditation on loving, living and dying by one of the greatest Anglican spiritual writers. An heroic book. Begun in health as a meditation on a lifetimes faith and experience, it ends in mortal sickness with Michael Mayne facing death. But his courage, his humour and his tone of voice do not desert him; humbling and inspiring, it is a validation both of his faith and his humanity. Alan Bennett A testimony to the power of faith and hope not to banish but to grow alongside pain and loss as a realisable potential of consciousness. It is a brave and moving account of one mans effort to celebrate life at its most testing and inexplicable. Salley Vickers , The Times Michael Mayne uses the knowledge of his approaching end to look back over his life and trace the enduring melody which has sung through him, all his life. The melody is not arrogant or without uncertainty, but it knows that it is responding to the original music of God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. It is the music of one individual and unrepeatable life lived in relation to God, and it will inspire its readers and hearers to listen for the enduring melody in their own lives, and begin to try to harmonise.
