Dappled Beauty - Through Lent with Gerard Manley Hopkins

Gerard Manley Hopkins is one of English literature’s most celebrated religious poets and a powerful companion through the Lenten season. In this beautifully crafted devotional, Carys Walsh invites readers on a journey of reflection and renewal, guided by Hopkins’ vivid imagery, inventive language and deep theological insight.

As Lent draws us towards the cross and the hope of Easter, these meditations offer a fresh way to deepen reflection, devotion and spiritual discovery. Whether you are new to Hopkins or a long-time admirer, Dappled Beauty opens a poetic and prayerful path through the season, from Ash Wednesday to Easter Day.
