The Seven Storey Mountain

La ermita de Thomas Merton en Getsemaní
byThomas Merton

Autobiography of Merton's first twenty-six years, from his birth in Prades to his entry into Gethsemani, written at the suggestion of Abbot Frederic Dunne. The title alludes to Dante's mountain of Purgatory. The story of a wandering youth, of his parents' deaths, of Cambridge and Columbia, and of a conversion lived as a homecoming, it became one of the most widely read religious books of the twentieth century and moved thousands of readers towards monastic life. In Britain it appeared abridged as Elected Silence (1949), with a foreword by Evelyn Waugh.
