The Edge of Words is Rowan Williams' first book since standing down as Archbishop of Canterbury.

Dr Williams enters into dialogue with thinkers as diverse as Augustine and Simone Weil and authors such as Joyce, Hardy, Burgess and Hoban in what is a compelling essay about the possibility of language about God.
