Title: A Wonderfu example of Carmelite Spirtuality!
Product review: Fr. Miller gives a thorough explanation and demonstration showing St. Therese's spiritual growth based on the teachings of St. John of the Cross and St. Teresa of Avila. Only two things I would want a purchaser to be aware of.One - From time to time it reads a little like a collage thesis. It isn't difficult to understand but you could feel like you are in a lecture.Two - This turned out to be a big plus for me. About 1/3 into the book I realized that I needed to have a better understanding of the teachings of St. John of the Cross and St. Teresa of Avila. I had previously stayed away from their writing. What a mistake! I would recommend an introductory book on their teachings. For me this was Fr. DuBay's Fire Within. Fr. Miller quotes him late in his book so it's safe to say it has his recommendation too.If you are a serious student of Carmelite spirituality or St. Therese, you want to read this book.
