Learning to Love Exploring Solitude and Freedom
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Harpercollins
- Publish date: 11/01/1998
Description:
This riveting volume traces Merton's struggles to reconcile an unexpected love with his sacred vows, all the while grappling with the burning social issues of the 60s. The "affair" jolts Merton out of his comfortable monastery routine and forces him to reassess his need for love, his commitment to celibacy, and his monastic vocation.
-- This year Merton's life will be more widely examined than ever as the 30th anniversary of his death occurs in December 1998.
-- Merton chronicles his clandestine affair of the heart.
-- He emerges as a free spirit: listening to Bob Dylan; visiting and corresponding with high-profile friends like Thich Nhat Hanh, Joan Baez, and Allen Ginsberg; and imagining a new life with his love.
