Superbundantly Alive

Description:

"This book reflects on the life of Thomas Merton, and in particular the way he embraced all aspects of life as a human being. Although he lived his adult life as a monk, he came to accept and integrate the feminine into his embrace of the whole. McCaslin and Porter discuss the women in Merton's life - their presences and absences - and his "turning toward life" despite his cloistered environment. A penetrating look at a man with an 'uncaged mind.'"--
