Synopsis

From the Booker Prize-winning author of Possession: A Romance (1990), On The Conjugial Angel is the latest book in the Swedenborg Society's Archive Series. A S Byatt, alongside a series of readings from her novella 'The Conjugial Angel', explores Swedenborg's influence on literature, the lives of the Tennysons and the conflict between religion and science. Also including an intimate insight into Dame Byatt's writing process and interest in literature, On The Conjugial Angel is drawn from the transcript of a talk and Q&A given at Swedenborg House in 2010 for the bicentenary of the Society.

On The Conjugial Angel is sixth in the series of Swedenborg archive pocket books. Edited by Stephen McNeilly, and drawing on miscellaneous material from the Swedenborg archives, the aim of the series is to make available in printed form lectures, interviews and other unique items that would otherwise remain unseen by a broader audience.
