Summary: Nice Book About Merton's Life
Comment: Hello everyone! To me this book was terrific because it actually prompted me to order The Seven Story Mountain-Merton's personal autobiography. Spanning over the now famous Trappist Cistercian monk's life-born in France- son of a father with a Bohemian lifestyle - and motherless at the age of 6. Tom went through a lot of obstacles that as do we all. And I think THAT is where one of the largest draws towards him is. That tatse of humanity becoming saintly- sin purifying in black and white. He makes it easy to believe.

Jennifer Fisher Bryant did an excellent job covering as much as she could on Thomas Merton's life in just 192 pages. It is important to note that this is a young adult's book technically-the average adult can read through this within a few hours. But that's another reason why I personally found it wonderful-within a day I felt I knew a lot more ( well I DID know more ) about this spiritual man. This Trappist whom believed in interfaith dialogue! In remaining open to the truth, without jeapordizing his own religion, either! To me-Thomas Merton is one of just a few men that I believe have show us what being a true Christian is all about. You all take care-and enjoy this book-you deserve to treat yourself to it!
