This book follows Vladimir Lossky's attempt to enlist in the French
army after the Nazi invasion of France in 1940. It records his
reflections on suffering; the true nature of Christian or Western
civilization; the rightness or otherwise of war; the problematic
relationship between Church and State; what we mean by a "nation";
and secularization. Such issues are mulled over, not as
abstractions, by someone who, as he walks across an increasingly
war-torn landscape, quite literally has his feet on the ground.
This work will be a revelation to those who know only Lossky's more
scholarly works -- here one discovers his rounded personality, his
warm humanity, and his love not only of Christian France but of the
West in general.
