TANTALUS & THE PELICAN
Exploring Monastic Spirituality Today (paperback)


A participant in the BBC series THE MONASTERY, Nicholas Buxton combines an exposition of the Christian monastic tradition with his engaging personal journey from despair and alcoholism to faith and redemption via Buddhism, academia and Reality TV. Beginning with the origins of monasticism in the deserts of Egypt in the 4th century, he considers essential features of early monastic spirituality and explores key elements of the Benedictine tradition, drawing out its profoundly counter-cultural message for our times. Paperback, 178 pages.
