¡Gran lectura! Me parece que empezó como una tesis y se convirtió en un libro... Hasta ahora capto que Sta. Teresita es HIJA de Sn. Juan de la Cruz, el le enseñó el camino. Me da menos miedo ahora leer a Sn Juan... Teresa fue un alma que amó mucho y que lo deseaba todo, es una gran maestra.

The first time I tried to read Ascent of Mount Carmel I balked at how severe it was - a call to desire nothing??

As this book claims, St. Therese is the lens through which St. John of the Cross's mystical theology can be brought to the masses.

So glad to read this book - now I can read St. John through the lens of love and spiritual childhood, which makes it open up beautifully.
