15 Days of Prayer with Thomas Merton

by André Gozier

One of the most prolific Cistercian authors, Thomas Merton was also one of the most humane and engaging spiritual figures of the twentieth century. He was a man of paradoxes: of words and silence, a comtemplative involved in the fight for social justice, and a man of solitude who, by keeping himself in the background, sought to deepen the fundamental human experience. Ultimately, he was a man with only one goal: union with God and communion with the humankind. Enjoy your time with Thomas Merton and be prepared to be surprised as you journey with one of the most fascinating figures of our time.

[Gary Emig · Rating 5 out of 5]

It's very insightful and provides focus and reflection for your prayer life.

[Drick · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book was designed to be a guide and introduction to the thought of Thomas Merton. It was neither particularly informative about Merton, nor particularly helpful. Seemed very "in-house" in the sense you needed to be Catholic and probably interested in monasticism. Not for the general public
