The cumulative total, being 84 Matins, 84 Lauds, and 84 Prime (252 offices), fits neatly into a single, nightstand edition, a small, compact book that can be comfortably held in the hand.

Easy to use, poetically rich, with a superb sampling of devotional works, "The Night Offices" will be welcomed by a broad readership, Christian and non-Christian alike.
Tickle offers the perfect complement to "The Divine Hours," bringing together prayers, psalms, hymn texts, religious poetry and other readings not included in the original trilogy, covering the offices for the hours from late evening to early morning.
