Product Description

In this collection, poet Sarah Law presents lucid, lyrical reflections on the much-loved saint, Th r se of Lisieux (1873-97), whose life and writing has been an inspiration to so many people. For Sarah Law, there is something about Th r se that catches at the heart, and her poems flow from that sense of friendship and tenderness with her subject. Many of the poems meditate on events, large and small, in Th r se's brief but spiritually significant life. The first section explores her childhood, and the second, her nine precious years as a Carmelite nun; years of both sweetness and suffering. Several poems are inspired by well-known photographs of Th r se, some of which are included in this volume. A final section considers Th r se's legacy, as her 'little way' of confidence and love became known throughout the world. Each poem may be read as an individual reflection, and as part of the larger biographical sequence.
