Previous Features



A stunning and unique collection from celebrated spiritual writer Thomas Merton. Dialogues with Silence is the first publication of his very own prayers coupled with his flowing, Zen-like sketches. Merton scholar Jonathan Montaldo has chosen the most moving of Merton’s conversations with God from his extensive body of work. For new readers, this book provides an introduction to the artistic and purely contemplative side of Merton, and for devotees, it offers a glimpse into a lesser-known side of one of our most timeless spiritual explorers.
Moving and inspiring, this is an elegant gift that is ideal for daily prayer and reflection.

Thomas Merton (1915 - 1968) is widely regarded as one of the most influential spiritual writers of modern times. He was a Trappist monk, writer, and peace and civil rights activist.

Jonathan Montaldo is the director of the Thomas Merton Center at Bellarmine College in Louisville, KY in the United States.
