Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This first collection of Thomas Merton's nature writings reveals the beloved spiritual master as an environmentalist ahead of his time. A primer on eco-spirituality, this important book is skillfully edited by Kathleen Deignan, Ph.D., with a foreword by Thomas Berry and art by John Giuliani. "Merton would be thrilled with this book."--Brother David Steindl-Rast, OSB

Synopsis:

With this new release, Trappist monk and spiritual writer Thomas Merton is revealed as a man whose spirituality is rooted in nature, an environmentalist ahead of his time. He approaches ecology as a spiritual issue, one that exposes the degree of human alienation from the sacredness of the planet.

No matter where you are, Merton will take you to places of divine beauty in nature. Be it the forest or the desert, the seasons, or gods creatures that endure them with us, all serve to remind us of the presence of God. The author paints not only pictures with words but captures glimpses of that source of feeling inside man which reflects the beauty of all god's creation.
