The Seeker and the Monk - Scott - Bog

"In The Seeker and the Monk, Sophfronia Scott mines the extensive private journals of Thomas Merton, one of the most influential contemplative thinkers of the past, for guidance on how to live in fraught times. Race, ambition, faith, activism, nature, prayer, friendship, love: with intimacy and a refusal to settle for clichâe, Scott invites readers into the themes that occupied Merton and that still command our attention today."--Back cover.
