Description:

In a pew in Edwin Lutyens' ecclesiastical masterpiece, St Jude on the Hill in North London, Will Self ponders the contemporary power of the sermon.

'Dearly Beloved,' he begins, as he explains the appeal of a good sermon!

And he reminds us that 'the sermon was instituted, in part, to correct the fake news of an age before the media that now disseminate it.'
