What Church Fathers have you read? I've read Saint John Chrysostom, Saint Maximos the Confessor, Saint John of Damascus, Saint John of the Ladder, and Saint Isaac the Syrian.
Discussions of Orthodox novels, like Laurus, also welcome.

Thanks for these, really liking them. No offense to the other anon(s), but I dislike hymns in English. Not sure why, it just doesn't have the same "holyness" to it, in my ears. I'm not religious though, just into aesthetics, like a Huysmans, so that might be why.

There is actually a sophisticated tradition of 'holy aesthetics' in the Orthodox Church, and it's quite different from how it's understood in Catholicism (which just 'sacred subject' + popular aesthetics).
