The extraordinary "New York Times" bestselling masterpiece from
"one of the most eloquent yet earthbound spiritual writers of our
time ("San Francisco Chronicle").
Kathleen Norris had written several much loved books, yet she
couldn't drag herself out of bed in the morning, couldn't summon
the energy for her daily tasks. Even as she struggled, Norris
recognized her familiar battle with "acedia," a word she had
discovered in early Church text years earlier. Fascinated by this
"noonday demon," so familiar to those in the early and medieval
Church, Norris knew she must restore this forgotten but important
concept to the modern world's vernacular. An examination of acedia
in the light of psychology, spirituality, the healing powers of
religious practice, and Norris's own experience, "Acedia & Me"
is both intimate and historically sweeping, brimming with
exasperation and reverence, sometimes funny, often provocative, and
always insightful.
