DON, MEGAN. Falling into the Arms of God: Meditations with Teresa of Avila.
New World Lib., dist. by Publishers Group West. Jun. 2005. c.176p. ISBN 1-57731-484-0. $20. REL In the contemporary spiritual atmosphere, despite advocacy from some, the 16th-century Spanish nun Teresa of Avila has been somewhat confused with and overshadowed by another Teresa-Thérèse of Lisieux. This fine, clear book attempts to remedy the neglect, guiding the reader along the path of Teresa's "Interior Castle," the inner mystical journey to and with God. Many readers will enjoy and praise the older Teresa's mature and confident mysticism, as well as her conviction that "the mystery of divine indwelling [is] available to all people." For most collections. (from the Spiritual Reading column by Graham Christian)
