Therese: A Life of Therese of Lisieux

About this book

...the fruit of much research and study on Dorothy's part, captures the heart of the message of Saint Therese of Lisieux and reveals also the depth of Dorothy's own spirituality. At the time when Dorothy wrote about her, she was already known to the world as the Saint of the Little Way; in the April 1952 CW Dorothy also called her "the saint of the responsible." Dorothy reflected in her book that while Therese's popularity was great, the "social implications of her teachings are yet to be written." Since the time that Dorothy wrote about her, St. Therese has become even better known and is now a Doctor of the Church. --Houston Catholic Worker
