No Man is An Island

FROM THE PUBLISHER

In prose that is at once electrifying and eloquent, Merton writes with penetrating insight on topics that contemporaries: friendship, personal vocation, temptation, humility, spiritual loneliness, courage, and life among others. Rich in wisdom, crackling with candid observations, No Man Is an Island is a classic that has sustained millions readers with its extraordinary understanding of humanity and the divine and with its practical applicability to our lives.

Thomas Merton (1915-68), a world-renowned religious philosopher, wrote more than 60 books of poetry, meditation, philosophy, and social criticism. For nearly 27 years, he was a monk of the austere Trappist order, where he became a towering spiritual figure and revered mystic as well as an antiwar activist and witness to peace.
