Despite their importance, the poems of St. Thérèse of Lisieux are among the least known of her writings, previously available only in highly edited selections. Here for the first time in English is the complete collection of Thérèse's poetry, faithfully translated from the French critical edition by Donald Kinney, O.C.D. Also included are a preface by Jean Guitton, a general introduction to Thérèse's spiritual and poetic development, 6 photos, and individual introductions to each of the poems, indicating its background and significance. The volume closes with the French text of the poems and a fully linked index to their major themes and images. Together with the ICS Publications editions of Thérèse of Lisieux's Story of a Soul, Last Conversations, Letters, Plays, and Prayers, this is an indispensible work for all those who love the life and spiritual message of "the greatest saint of modern times."

The evolution of Saint Thérèse's spirituality can be traced through the two volumes of her published General Correspondence. Each chapter is devoted to a particular correspondent, and explores the nature and scope of the rapport Thérèse established with this individual. Following a brief biographical entry, "found poems" (see the Introduction to this book for an explanation of this literary sub-genre) are then generated to encapsulate the essence of the correspondence. The medium of found poetry has never before been applied to the vast output of Theresian scholarship.It is the hope of author W. Bruce Ingram that this collection of ?fty-one found poems-abridged facets of Saint Thérèse's affectionate exchanges-will act as a gateway, a catalyst, prompting a more in-depth study of and prayerful reflection on the doctrine of Saint Thérèse's "Little Way of Spiritual Childhood." Anyone interested in spiritual enrichment, the study of saints, and devotees of Saint Thérèse, is sure to find this book thoughtful and inspiring.

Saint Thérèse of Lisieux (1873 - 1897), also known as "The Little Flower of Jesus," was a French Carmelite nun. She is one of the most popular and influential Catholic Saints since apostolic times, together with St. Francis of Assisi. This collection of poems, translated by S.L. Emery, brings together St. Thérèse's love poems to Jesus, poems of praise and thankfulness, poems that reflect on Jesus' life on Earth as well as a set of poems in honor of Jeanne D'Arc. The poems speak of her desire to become more and more like Christ and Mary and, above all, to serve God.

Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, largely unknown when she died in a Carmelite convent at the age of twenty-four, became-through her posthumously published autobiography-one of the world's most influential religious figures. In Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, bestselling novelist and memoirist Kathryn Harrison, whose depictions of women have been called "powerful" (The New York Times Book Review) and "luminously intelligent" (The Boston Sunday Globe), brings to the saint's life her storytelling gift and deep insight as she reveals the hopes and fears of the young girl behind the religious icon. Saint Thérèse of Lisieux shows us the pampered daughter of successful and deeply religious tradespeople who-through a personal appeal to the pope-entered a convent at the early age of fifteen. There, Thérèse embraced sacrifice and self-renunciation in a single-minded pursuit of the "nothingness" she felt would bring her closer to God. With feeling, Harrison shows us the sensitive four-year-old whose mother's death haunted her forever and contributed to the ascetic spirituality that strengthened her to embrace even the deadly throes of tuberculosis. Tellingly placed in the context of late-nineteenth-century French social and religious practices, this is a powerful story of a life lived with enormous passion and a searing, triumphant voyage of the spirit.

This books explores this boundless trust through the lens of the life of St Therese of Lisieux and expounds it with her spiritual teaching. She can be a patron of this confidence in our prayer. She can be the champion of this holy daring in every area of our Christian discipleship. 'Your book has deepened my appreciation of Therese even though for most of my life I have been reading her, and reading and thinking about her and growing in love for her. I thank you for writing it.' Bishop Patrick V. Ahern 'A wonderful work! The author's attractive and scholarly writing distils for us the pure essence of Therese's filial daring. In its account of how she was on terms of holy familiarity with God this book is joyous, impressive, luminous.' Alan Bancroft translator of St Therese's poetry John Udris is Cathedral Dean of Our Lady and St Thomas, Northampton. He has a Licence in Spiritual Theology from the Pontifical University of St Thomas, Rome, where he focused his studies on St Therese.
