In Our Father Who Art On Earth Jose Tolentino Mendonca draws on the
expertise of biblical texts, but also to the data of anthropology
and literature, to dare to 'open-up' the Our Father to believers
and non-believers, and point out new keys to a spiritual reading of
this text that is the heart of Christianity. The result is
absolutely unusual. The reader is summoned to an inner journey that
they will not forget.

Fresh examination of the prayers of Jesus in the Gospels
By the mercy of God I am a Christian, by my deeds a great sinner,
by calling a homeless wanderer of the lowliest origins, roaming
from place to place. Here, see my belongings: a bag of dry crusts
on my back and the Holy Bible in my breast pocket; that's it. In
1884 there appeared in Russia a slim volume containing four short
tales. They told of a pilgrim, a lone wanderer, led by his quiet
curiosity and a deep spiritual longing to undertake a lifelong
journey across the land. A folk hero, a figure familiar from the
works of Tolstoy and Leskov, this gentle pilgrim and his simple
story would soon travel the world - and would even, much later,
traverse the pages of JD Salinger's Franny and Zooey as the 'small
pea-green cloth-bound book' that Franny keeps close in her handbag.
The pilgrim's ancient journey takes him from a city monastery
through forests, fields and the steppes of Siberia. He walks by day
and by night, through rains and summer months, finding food and
shelter where he can. Along the way, he encounters priests and
professors, convicts, nuns and beggars, a tipsy old man in a
soldier's greatcoat, from whom he slowly gathers great stores of
wisdom and experience. But at the heart of his journey is his time
spent praying as he journeys on alone, discovering the peace and
consolation that come of constant prayer and silent contemplation.
Simple and sincere, The Way of a Pilgrim paints an enduring picture
of a life of detachment through wandering and prayer. And, as the
pilgrim makes his way through the wilds, he invites us to travel
with him, along an ancient path into an immense, mystical
landscape.
