Einmal durch den keltischen Jahreskreis führt diese ungewöhnliche Pilgerreise und hebt dabei ausgewählte Schätze schottischer und irischer Erzählkunst. Figuren aus der keltischen Anderswelt, wie der schillernde Held Fionn MacCumhaill, die tragisch Liebenden Diarmuid und Grainne oder die Heilige Brigida von Kildare werden lebendig. Auf ihren Spuren wächst auf dem Weg durch die Jahreszeiten die Hoffnung, dass Verwandlung immer möglich ist ¿ für ein einzelnes Leben und für die menschliche Gemeinschaft.Als Erzählerin und Theologin schöpft Claudia Süssenbach aus der Weisheit der keltischen Mythologie die Inspiration für eine spirituelle Praxis, die sich mit dem Kreislauf von Natur und Jahreszeiten verbindet. Beginnend mit dem keltischen Neujahrsfest durchwandert sie mit ihren Leserinnen und Lesern den jahreszeitlichen Kreislauf von Vergehen und Erneuerung. Jedes Fest verbindet die Autorin mit einer ebenso fesselnden wie poetischen Erzählung. Ein Kapitel unter der Überschrift ¿Nachgedacht¿ ergänzt jeweils die Geschichten. Gemeinsam mit ihrer Leserschaft taucht Claudia Süssenbach ein in die Gedankenwelt der keltisch-christlichen Spiritualität - einer Tradition, die um die Gegenwart des Göttlichen in allen Dingen und um die Heiligkeit der Erde weiß.¿Anderszeiten¿ ist nicht nur ein Buch für Schottland- und Irland-Liebhaber, sondern für alle Menschen, die sich nach einer geerdeten Spiritualität sehnen.

Aus dieser Quelle speisen sich auch die Gebete, die die einzelnen Kapitel des Buches abschließen und die hier erstmals in deutscher Sprache vorliegen. Sie stammen zum überwiegenden Teil aus der Carmina Gadelica, einer Sammlung von Gebeten und Segensworten aus den schottischen Highlands und von den Äußeren Hebriden, die im 19. Jahrhundert von Alexander Carmichael zusammengestellt und veröffentlicht wurde.
