		<description><![CDATA[Paperback: 192 pages Publisher: Harper ISBN-10: 0060981180 reviewed by Kathleen Valentine This is quite possibly the most beautiful book I have ever read.

		<description><![CDATA[In September of last year I wrote a piece for Godspy on Ron Hansen&#8217;s Exiles a haunting and beautifully written meditation on priest-poet Gerard Manley Hopkins and the composition of one of his masterworks, &#8220;The Wreck of the Deutschland,&#8221; about a shipwreck that took the lives of five Franciscan  nuns in 1875.
