Thomas Merton I Have Seen what I was Looking for : Selected Spiritual Writings

An informative and fascinating look at Merton’s life and writings by a fellow-Trappist. Pennington describes Merton as “a monk, a mystic — yes! A merry, mischievous monk and a modern, muddied mystic. Deadly intent upon becoming a saint — what else is there to do — knowing that a can of beer is a help along the way.” Father Basil takes us on a whirlwind review through the seasons of Merton’s life and work.
