Charles de Foucauld sought to proclaim the gospel not simply by his
words but by his life. Living among the Muslim poor of Algeria, he
sought to be a "universal brother", a witness to the love of God
for all people. Though at the time of his violent death he had
attracted no followers, his story later inspired the foundation of
the Little Brothers and the Little Sisters of Jesus. This volume
offers a poignant entry into the heart of a modern mystic and
martyr.
Caryll Houselander (1901-54), an English Catholic laywoman, artist,
and visionary, was driven by a strong identification with the poor
that enabled her in fresh and insightful ways, to proclaim the
'Christing of the World.' Wright interweaves texts and images into
an intimate encounter with a fascinating woman, a 'divine
eccentric,' and a gifted reader of souls.
