Mark Barrett's concern when writing Crossing was to offer a way for
those who do not live in monasteries to access something of what is
a daily experience among supposed religious specialists. He hoped
that the reader would find that monastics - so often the shadowy
medieval figures of media-gothic - are in reality fellow-seekers,
apprentices training among the tools of a spiritual workshop.
Monastic practices are not a panacea for the ills of modern
society, and it would be naive to suggest they can be. The point is
rather that Christian monastic practices came into being at least
in part as a responce to the tidal currents of our hearts, set
swirling by our busy lives, whichever century we live in.
