Reviews

'If A Child of the Air, the author's memoir of her early life, was a fluid, lucid dream, walking through an England which is now long-lost, this second volume picks up the pace and pushes into darker waters. Anthea writes vividly about life as an English teacher, juxtaposing the demands of her profession with the rigours of her devotion to a spiritual regime. As one of her former students, to whom she taught the beauty of Keats's poetry, The Price of Devotion gave me a fascinating insight into why Anthea taught with the understated power that she did.' Jonathan Morley, former student 'An existential plea is met with a blinding light which draws the author into a religious experience that offers as much as it demands. Here, we have all the highs and lows of life without sex, drugs or rock and roll. The Price of Devotion is a winning combination of the harrowing and the uplifting, with its most evocative passages set in a mountaintop retreat in Rajasthan.' Mark Hooper, classical musician/pianist and former member of the Brahma Kumaris
