| Description: |
Dorothy Day, co-founder of the Catholic Worker, has been called ?the church?s least likely yet most plausible saint.? From Union Square to Rome, first published in 1938, offers the first account of her dramatic conversion to Roman Catholicism, a story later expanded upon in her classic memoir, The Long Loneliness.
In this concise and passionate work, Day?s purpose was to give an account to her comrades in the radical movement of how she came to embrace Christ and the Catholic Church. She reveals how God was present in all the steps of her journey: in intimations of the sacred, in her experiences in the struggle for social struggle, in times of loneliness and confusion, in her experience of love, her joy in the birth of her daughter, and even in the painful price she ultimately paid for her faith.
Along with a new foreword by Pope Francis, this edition is also illustrated by a selection of photographs. |
