About this book
In 1960, five young men enter Parkminster, an English Carthusian monastery, seeking God through an exceptionally demanding life of solitude and prayer. Over the next five years, each must discover whether spiritual longing can withstand the reality of this commitment. Drawing on personal testimony and historical research, Nancy Klein Maguire reconstructs their experiences with the intimacy of a group portrait. The setting is austere rather than cosy, but the narrative remains deeply human: beneath the shared routines are very different temperaments, hopes, and doubts. A compelling question runs throughout—who can truly make this life his own? (hachettebookgroup.com)
