Book Reviews of A Book of Hours
Book Review: highly recommended
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the most beautiful books I have ever read. It gives a whole new perspective on praise and prayer. Thomas Merton's love of God, and the wonders of nature He created, flows from every page. At first, reading the introduction seemed long and "wordy", but as I read the "hours" I found a need to look back to the introduction, firstly for guidance, but also for more insight into Merton the man, who penned such breathtaking poetry. A book for any one wishing to deepen their own spirituality.
