A.N. Wilson on the Archbishop

This week's Times Literary Supplement (December 10, 2008) features A.N. Wilson's review of Rupert Shortt's The biography of the Archbishop (Hodder and Stoughton, 2008). For Wilson, Rowan Williams "has initiated an intelligent discussion about the nature of religion, such as we have not heard since William Temple was Archbishop." And that, of course, includes poetry.
