He had a great need for love." --Dr. Rudy Bernard, Merton's fellow monk at Gethsemani "This book will provide people with a new view of the deeply human, but transcendent, love story of Thomas Merton--loving God and loving a woman. [It will be] a great contribution to the spiritual journey of thousands of people." --Dr. Lewis Rambo, Professor of Pastoral Psychology at SanFrancisco Theological Seminary, and conversion expert "This book permits us to find what is inspirational about Merton--his strength and determination to overcome, and at times accept, his human frailness and vulnerability all while battling for self-discovery and solace." --Patrick Hasburgh, author ofAspen Pulp
