What if we truly belong to each other? What if we are all walking around shining like the sun? Mystic, monk, and activist Thomas Merton asked those questions in the twentieth century. Writer Sophfronia Scott is asking them today. In The Seeker and the Monk, Scott mines the extensive private journals of one of the most influential contemplative thinkers of the past for guidance on how to live in these fraught times. As a Black woman who is not Catholic, Scott both learns from and pushes back against Merton, holding spirited and intimate conversations on race, faith, and love.

This book was my a introduction to the life and writings of Thomas Merton. I appreciated the author’s personal reflections and wonderings…even her dialogue
with Merton. I like her writing style. She gives space for the reader’s own thoughts and seeking to surface while reading. The writings she lifted up sparked my curiosity and I read more, beyond the pages of this book. I will continue my own search to learn more about this monk, as well as read more books by Sophfronia Scott.

Review of Year of Yes
Revisado: 01-01-16
I found this book to be insightful, entertaining, educational and inspiring!
While I may not make some of the same life decisions as the author, the manner in which she presents her story allows for, as well as,
encourages the space and freedom to discover one's own path.
