LRB | Thomas Jones : Short Cuts: "Angels aren’t what they used to be... the Virgin Mary was at first ‘troubled’ by Gabriel’s visit. No such anxieties seem ever to have afflicted Jacky Newcomb, ‘the Angel Lady’, who... has now written a book, An Angel Treasury: A Celestial Collection of Inspirations, Encounters and Heavenly Lore... There’s a ‘frequently asked questions’ section: ‘What is an angel?’ ‘Can my Grandma be my Angel?’ ‘What is angel music?’ ‘The area in “heaven” that produces the unbelievable angel music,’ Newcomb says, ‘is believed to be over England.’"
