Reviews

In this arresting spiritual memoir, Kiely describes his encounter with Main and what the practice of contemplative meditation means to him. [This book] is worth tracking down if one wants to get into the heart and soul of a person whose humanity is nurtured by faith, prayer, and service to others. I very much enjoyed these sketches and look for more in the future. <br> Lawrence S. Cunningham, Commonweal, November 9, 2001<br>

Much autobiographical writing falls short of the spiritual dimension, which gives it real depth and universality. Robert Kiely rises above this tendency in his view of his life taken at a mature midpoint. Laurence Freeman O.S.B.
