Book Description
In Thérèse of Lisieux: God's Gentle Warrior, Thomas Nevin examined the popular saint in the broad context of her life with her family and as a Carmelite nun. Now he focuses on her writings, especially the last of her three "autobiographical" manuscripts, known simply as "C". Nevin's book addresses the torment of doubt within the life and writing of a saint best known for the strength of her conviction.
