Publisher's Synopsis
This book, Singing the Mercies of the Lord, is published to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the canonization of St. Thérèse of Lisieux by Pope Pius XI in 1925.
A lifelong devotee of the French saint, Mr. Nolan expertly opens up new understandings of this young Carmelite nun to readers. His careful research provides a clear summary of various aspects of the life of Thérèse Martin.
The origins of this book are individual articles published in various journals of spirituality. As such, the reader may find it convenient to read the chapters as separate units.
The articles are grouped ito five sections: Saint Thérèse and her siblings; Thérèse's spiritual teachings; St. Thérèse, Mary, the Saints, and Spiritual Writers; St. Thérèse, Ireland, and other places; Thérèse and the theatre.
