Former freethinker turned monk details the daily rituals and growth of faith inside monastery walls. A highly readable journal that reflects an amazing spiritual and intellectual growth. Merton, the mystic Catholic thinker, is a writer with ecumenical and cross-religious appeal.

Thomas Merton, in this book, takes the reader behind the curtain at the monastery and lets them see the white-robed, silent monks at work, meditation, and prayer.
