Title: Erudite, but hardly readable.
Review: It is not clear as to what audience Ms.Slade was addressing in writimg her study of St. Teresa of Avila, certainly not the general reader looking for insights into the personality and life of Teresa de Jesus. Readability apparently was not a prerequisite. The text is hardly free flowing, most of the writing indeed is quite tortuous. Perhaps the volume can be appreciated by an exegete.
