Saint Thérèse of Lisieux

Saint Thérèse of Lisieux

The captivating life story of St. Thérèse of Lisieux (1873-1897), the beloved French Carmelite nun whose profound wisdom and simple approach to spirituality have inspired millions around the world.

Born into a devout Catholic family in Alençon, France, Thérèse lost her mother at the tender age of four. Raised by her loving father and sisters, she developed an ardent faith and precocious spiritual maturity. At the age of fifteen, Thérèse courageously entered the Carmelite monastery in Lisieux, embracing a hidden life of prayer and sacrifice.
Despite her obscurity and short life, Thérèse left an indelible mark on the Church through her autobiography, "Story of a Soul". Written under obedience before her death from tuberculosis at age 24, this intimate journal chronicles her joys, trials, and inner life. With disarming simplicity and honesty, Thérèse shares her "little way" of spiritual childhood - a path of trust and total surrender to God's love.
After her death, Thérèse's autobiography became a spiritual classic, captivating hearts worldwide. Canonized in 1925, she was declared a Doctor of the Church in 1997 by Pope John Paul II. Affectionately known as the "Little Flower", St. Thérèse continues to shower the world with her promised "roses" of grace, touching lives in the most extraordinary ways.
Through this definitive edition of her autobiography, allow Thérèse to teach you her way of love and confidence, and draw closer to God's heart. A timeless masterpiece of spirituality, "Story of a Soul" is a must-read for anyone seeking a deeper relationship with the Divine.
