Book Reviews of New Seeds of Contemplation
Book Review: Black and White
Summary: 3 Stars
While I admire and relate to the words of Merton, I find his style rather sharp. He seems to define his experience and spirtuality well (which I relate), but then seems to trash others or society that functions differently. Certainly society is very ill and could benefit from Merton type teachings, but this constant contrast seems to put himself (and spiritually commited people) apart from everyday people. When we (I) am living in an everday world, it makes me feel stuck between his teachings and those whom he blasts. Still, I am enjoying the teachings of the book. I simply need to accept his style and take what the book offers (which is indeed rich in spirituality).
