Summary: A profound read from a profound author
Comment: Do not run away from this book if you have happen to come across it. Instinct may tell you it will go over your head and you may waste several days reading it. But it is not that kind of book.

It may take several years to enjoy what you may find here. Edith Stein, the Jewish woman, first atheist and philosopher, then catholic convert, Carmelite nun and martyr at Auschwitz is an exceptional person but don't even let that put you off because she will introduce you through this book to St. John of the Cross. One saint teaching you about another.

This newly canonised and appointed Patron of Europe will guide you through the paths of the Spirit and the soul as she re-reads the works of St. John of the Cross in the light of philosophical training [not that it is a hinder] and fresh catholic faith.

I read this book and have set it down for several days and weeks only to take it up again because of its appeal. I struggle with it because it is such a challenging topic but I don't intend yet to give up. It is a difficult subject but this is a worthwhile task.
