User reviews

LibraryThing member Harrod
Very nice read from a few years back. Author spends time with Trappist Monks and writes about how the experiences helped him through the loss of his son. Interesting perspectives on a subject matter near and dear to my heart. I wholeweartedly recommend this if this is your cup of tea.
