A Masterpiece in the Literature of Mysticism by St. John of the Cross

This new edition of the Image classic, with more than 100,000 copies sold, brings E. Allison Peers' magnificent translation of St; John of the Cross's masterpiece to a new generation of readers and will renew the interest of these already familiar with its soaring poetry and timeless truths. The 16th century Carmelite monk St. John of the Cross stands alongside St Teresa of Avila as the West's best known and most beloved Christian mystics. As Peers writes in his Introduction, "The most sublime of all Spanish mystics, he soars aloft on the wings of Divine love to heights known hardly to any of them...True to the character of his thought, his style is always forceful and energetic."

Dark Night of the Soul follows the soul's journey from a state of abandonment and darkness to a loving union with God. In a voice at once grandiose and melodious, and a style that combines the systematic theology of St. Thomas Aquinas with rapturous poetry, St. John describes the process of moving away from routine religious rituals and embracing a Being who can be known only through love. His words, Peers writes, "are a wonderful illustration of the theological truth that grace, far from destroying nature, ennobles and dignifies it, and of the principles of found between the natural and the supernatural - between the principles of sound reason and the sublime manifestations of Divine grace."
One of the greatest contributions to the literature of mysticism. Dark Night of the Soul offers support and encouragement to all who seek oneness with God.
