A companion to award-winning producer Morgan Atkinson's
documentary of the same title, this work draws us into the
geographical landscape of Thomas Merton's life in America, a
landscape that was intrinsic to his spiritual journey.
Containing a considerable amount of rich material unused in
the documentary, Soul Searching is alive with the narrative
of those who either knew Merton well or passionately care
about him: Father Daniel Berrigan, Rosemary Ruether, Martin
Marty, Paul Elie, and many others. Their insights are linked
to the places--from the Abbey of Gethsemani to the Redwoods
Monastery in California, from New York City to Christ in the
Desert Monastery in New Mexico--that both nurtured and
shaped Merton. The picture that emerges, through both the
narrative and vivid photography, is filled with provocative
insights into the interior landscape of one of the spiritual
giants of modern times.
