About this audiobook
Begun five years after he entered the Abbey of Our Lady of Gethsemani, The Sign of Jonas is an extraordinary view of Merton's life in a Trappist monastery, and it serves also as a spiritual log recording the deep meaning and increasing sureness he felt in his vocation: the growth of a mind that finds in its contracted physical world new intellectual and spiritual dimensions.
About the author
Thomas Merton was born in France and came to live in the United States at the age of twenty-four. He received several awards recognizing his contribution to religious study and contemplation, including the Pax Medal, and remained a devoted spiritualist and a tireless advocate for social justice until his death in 1968.
