Do you long to establish a relationship with the saints, but find them--or the volumes written about them--a little intimidating?

Traveling Companions is a manageable volume that briefly introduces saints from a variety of times, places, and walks of life, all in language that brings them close to contemporary readers' lives. You're sure to find companions here that you will be happy to walk with all the way to the Kingdom.

Christopher Moorey has presented us with an admirable selection of examples from the 'great cloud of witnesses' by whom we are surrounded. He writes in a vivid and lively style: I am convinced that his book will help many to rediscover the saints and to choose among them some whom in a distinctive way they will make their personal friends."--Metropolitan Kallistos Waredescribing the original Greek edition of Traveling Companions

Travelling Companions
Author: Atoni Jach
Publisher: Transit Lounge
ISBN: 1925760898
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 463
Book Description
'Antoni Jach takes one of the oldest of storytelling forms, the traveller who shares with us the tales of other travellers, and makes new magic from it. Travelling Companions is a joy from start to finish.’ — John Connolly, author of he: A Novel and the Charlie Parker series Solitary travellers and a couple encounter Nina, an eloquent storyteller, on their travels through Spain, France and Italy. She entrances them all with her tales, which prompts her fellow travelling companions to share their own stories. A handsome young man from Staten Island, who believes that life forms exist in other galaxies, vows to never work in an office again and travels by container ship to a commune in Italy. A lonely postal worker from Lodz takes home and reads the most interesting love letters, often becoming convinced a relationship needs his intervention, before delivering them the next day. A woman named Pauline calls herself Kim because her surname is Nowak. Depressed about turning forty, she mysteriously disappears from her own birthday party. Told by people on a journey, these are stories – rich with unexpected wisdoms – of lives in transit. Travelling Companions is charming, amusing and philosophical – a wholly original exploration of what it means to honour our strangest dreams and disappointments. It is both a confrontation with, and a sweet diversion from, these, the darkest of times. ‘In the tradition of Boccaccio and Chaucer, Jach is an extraordinarily inventive fabulist for late capitalism, seducing his reader into an ever-expansive web of captivating and often hilarious stories from likely – and unlikely — travelling companions.’ — Marion May Campbell, author of Shadow Thief and Konkretion ‘Travelling Companions is a hybrid travelogue of Europe and the strangeness of the human spirit. It reminds us that storytelling is different from ‘fiction’ — it catches us in a different pulse and breath as we open ourselves to even the most far-fetched and ironic pleasures of the tale. It leads our tourists further than mere travelling: these stories transport them, with folly, irony, humour and endless pleasure.’ — Philip Salom, author of The Returns and The Fifth Season
