A lovely and inspiring memoir by the co-founder of the Catholic Worker Movement. The book is a timely reminder that radical social justice can indeed be lived in our society and that justice arises out of simple acts of kindness and love.

I especially enjoyed Day's account of her conversion and the intellectual questions she posed to herself. I wish the book included more details of day-to-day life at a Catholic worker house.
