FOR ALL THE SAINTS?
Remembering the Christian departed
By N.T. Wright. SPCK. 75 pages
ISBN 0 281 05620

This intriguing title hides a thought-provoking new book. Those who have quailed at Tom Wright's more imposing volumes will be delighted by this more focussed and easily accessible paperback.

The theological focus here is on Heaven, Hell, Purgatory and what happens to Christians when they die. However, the aim of the book is narrower than a general treatment. In his introduction, Wright is concerned to address theological and pastoral questions, and interestingly, liturgical practices.
