This is a book of sacrament, icon, and symbol, a book of the light of Heaven illuminating the earth. It is at once long ago and now, and you will find a meditation on time amidst encounters with different times. It includes mystical theology, and a novella of a young man's spiritual awakening after he finds in his room a book of Arthurian legends. It is about the greatest pursuit in life: the quest for the Holy Grail and whatever may lie beyond it. Throughout The Sign of the Grail there is something beyond mere earth shining through, a heavenly light that can shine right where we are. It is a deep dream—and a spiritual awakening.

"The Sign of the Grail" is a collection of memorable literary works by CJS Hayward centering around the Holy Grail and what it means to orthodox religion, as well as those who follow those teachings. Tackling diverse subjects such as iconography and an earthly paradise, he pulls no punches when dealing with many of the topics laid out through the legends.
