Title: Spousal Prayer, Divine Intimacy
Review: Tessa Bielecki is an unusual Carmelite nun, who styles herself a monk. She writes in uncomplicated, but not simplistic, language about her namesake Teresa of Avila and Teresa's experience of God as her spouse. The author opens this experience for the contemporary reader in such a way that one can regard it as a viable spiritual lifestyle for the lay Christian, single or married, male or female.In a text of little more than 100 pages, the book cannot be called profound and the author sometimes loses focus. But she presents enough material from Teresa herself to support her premise and she gives concrete, healthy guidelines for the spiritual seeker.
