One of the most respected and adventurous of writers on the mystical traditions of Christianity, himself a Carmelite, Noel Dermot O'Donoghue has gathered together his definitive reflections on the three great mystical doctors of the Catholic Church: St Teresa of Avila, St John of the Cross and St Therese of Lisieux. These inter-related essays are the fruit of a lifetime, written in O'Donoghue's richly poetic way.

Praise for O'Donoghue's book Heaven in Ordinarie

'Searching and moving... combines the sensibility to language and feeling of a poet with an astonishing intellectual boldness... a wonderful and visionary account of orthodox Christianity.' Rowan Williams

Industry Reviews

"'one of the most perceptive spiritual writers of our time' Religious Life Review 'I found this book... simply one of the most searching and moving I had encountered. It combines the sensibility to language and feeling of a poet with an astonishing intellectual boldness, a metaphysical energy; and every page is also recognisably the work of a pastor of unusual quality. This is a wonderful and visionary account of orthodox Christianity.' Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury"
