Thomas Merton: Faithful Visionary

We are happy to partner with the Liturgical Press in Collegeville, Minnesota, to provide another location at which a few of their books can be purchased.The book Thomas Merton: Faithful Visionary, from the People of God Series, describes Thomas Merton as the consummate postmodern holy one: flawed, anti-institutional, a voice for the voiceless. But he was also a classical traditionalist: centered, obedient, in search of stability. He was a religious thinker of remarkable insight, a social commentator of courage and conviction, and a writer of startling virtuosity. Michael W. Higgins recounts the life of this insatiable wanderer. He explores the various layers of influence and evolution in Merton's thought and spirituality. This book tells the remarkable story of a life that remains to be understood from its beginnings and long after its premature ending.
