Seven Storey Mountain: An Autobiography Of Faith

$17.99
Author
Merton, Thomas

A modern spiritual classic chronicles the journey of a restless, intelligent young man buffeted by the social and political winds of the early twentieth century as he decides to join a Trappist monastery.

One of the most famous books ever written about a man’s search for faith and peace.

The Seven Storey Mountain tells of the growing restlessness of a brilliant and passionate young man, who at the age of twenty-six, takes vows in one of the most demanding Catholic orders—the Trappist monks. At the Abbey of Gethsemani, "the four walls of my new freedom," Thomas Merton struggles to withdraw from the world, but only after he has fully immersed himself in it. At the abbey, he wrote this extraordinary testament, a unique spiritual autobiography that has been recognized as one of the most influential religious works of our time. Translated into more than twenty languages, it has touched millions of lives.
