Abstract:
In this landmark of Christian mysticism, the much-admired Carmelite nun offers moving accounts of her profound religious experiences and ultimate union with God. St. Teresa talks of her childhood and education in 16th-century Spain, her physical afflictions and spiritual crises, her many visions and mystical encounters, and her determination to embrace the contemplative life. -- from publisher description.
