Secrets of Divine Love is the book that introduces A. Helwa to our catalogue, and it makes a clear case for the kind of writer we are dealing with. This is devotional writing rather than argument, concerned with faith as something felt and practised, and it moves at the pace of reflection rather than instruction.
We know A. Helwa here through the page and the recording alone, and that is honest ground to stand on. What the work shows is an author comfortable addressing the listener directly, willing to sit with longing and doubt, and shelved by us across spirituality and wellbeing because it genuinely belongs on both.
