Compassionate Fire (Paperback)

COMPASSIONATE FIRE
The Letters of Thomas Merton &
Catherine de Hueck Doherty


Just after Thomas Merton's death in 1968, Catholic social activist Catherine de Hueck Doherty wrote to Merton's abbot: "In some strange mysterious way I never quite understood, [he] was in part my spiritual son." Their friendship originated when Merton worked at Friendship House in Harlem, and this volume of warm, candid correspondence traces nearly three decades of friendship through their surviving letters, Doherty's having previously been unpublished. The exchange reveals Merton's development from a young man searching for his place in God's plan, to a monk seeking God through solitude and work for social justice.

Edited by Robert A. Wild, a priest at the Madonna House community in Combermere, Ontario, which was founded by de Hueck Doherty.

This unique volume contains not only a wealth of information about Thomas Merton, but also many insights that come from one who lived the life Merton lived. "One rarely writes a formal biography of one's brother," says Pennington (1931 – 2005). "Rather, memories are shared, vignettes are drawn." Paperback, 207 pgs.

"A fine source for the analysis of Merton's writing and thought in the context of monasticism."
---Professor Bonnie Thurston (past President of the International Thomas Merton Society)
