My Kind of Carol

 You voted for your favourite carols. We recorded them for you.

For many of us, hearing the first carols during Advent brings the realisation that Christmas is coming.  That was certainly the feeling of Tablet readers who nominated and voted for their favourite carols last year.

We are now pleased to bring you this beautiful CD featuring the award-winning Exmoor Singers of London singing Tablet readers' Top 10 carols, some that didn't quite make that list plus a selection of more unusual ones, including At the Nativity and Peaceful Was the Night which, as far as we know, have not been commercially recorded before. 

The CD covers the whole Advent season right through to Epiphany, and is accompanied by a booklet containing all the lyrics for the carols.

Full CD track listing

1. Of the Father's Love Begotten
2. A Spotless Rose
3. Gabriel's Message (The Angel Gabriel)

My Kind of Hymn

The CD is accompanied by a booklet containing the lyrics off all the hymns as well as exclusive descriptions from contributors, ranging from the composers themselves, such as Daniel Schutte who writes about 'Here I am, Lord', to Renata Jonscher who describes how the late Pope John Paul II felt about the two hymns she sings in her native language, Barka (Lord You Have Come to the Lakeside) and Madonno Czarna (Black Madonna).

A Parish Year
- by Pastor Ignotus

Many readers enjoyed our regular Pastor Ignotus column in the print edition of The Tablet. Now you can read about a whole year in one book, as selected articles have been taken from The Tablet to enlighten and entertain you.

The wonderful Pastor Ignotus gives us a unique insight into the life of a typical parish priest. His account is full of humanity, with none of the idiosyncrasies of human nature overlooked. He invites us to share in the challenges and rewards of life in the real but anonymous 'St Jude's' parish, where we experience moments of high comedy and also of deep sadness. Whatever the emotion, you won't fail to enjoy this charming compilation; its characters are so recognisable and Pastor Ignotus himself is utterly convincing.

Copies are priced at £6.99 - 1st Class postage is 77p, Europe £1.25, R.O.W. £2.15.

Available direct from The Tablet offices. For payment methods see bottom of the page.


The Living Spirit, an anthology edited by
Margaret Hebblethwaite

A richly diverse anthology of prayers and readings which offers round-the-year spiritual sustenance as it follows the seasons of the Christian year and remembers the witness of those who have left a mark on our lives, from the great saints of the past to those who have challenged the evils and injustices of our own age. Many women are commemorated here and devotional material is included for such occasions as the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, Remembrance Day and Homelessness Sunday.

The imaginative variety of this collection makes it ideal as a resource for worship and intercession, and as an inspiration for personal devotion throughout the year.

Unfinished Journey
 The Church 40 years after Vatican II

Why, despite the changes since Vatican II, has the Church appeared sometimes to backtrack? Why is there a sense of a journey unfinished?

To mark the retirement of John Wilkins as editor, The Tablet's deputy editor, Austen Ivereigh, invited 19 of the most distinguished Catholic writers of the age to assess how far the Church has travelled since the Second Vatican Council.

The result is a truly fascinating series of essays on a huge range of topics by an international cast of theologians, commentators and journalists, including Eamon Duffy, Nicholas Lash, Michael Novak, Hans Küng, Joan Chittister, Timothy Radcliffe, John Cornwell and many other outstanding Tablet contributors. There is also a tribute to John Wilkins by the late-lamented Guardian columnist, Hugo Young.
