Beloved as "the Little Flower of Jesus," Marie-Fran oise-Th r se Martin-or SAINT TH R SE OF LISIEUX (1873-1897)-is remembered today for this, her spiritual autobiography. Before her too-young death from tuberculosis at the age of 24, she put down in words her simple yet profound approach to the worship of God, called her "little way," a philosophy of everyday goodness and appreciation of life and nature that anyone may follow. Remarkably, her deep piety grew from her own life-long suffering, from the loss of her mother at age four to her own ill health, and through them her dedication to obedience of and surrender to God's will.A favorite of spiritual seekers, this is a lovely work of devotion and prayfulness.

This book is a memoir of Thérèse of Lisieux, a French Catholic Discalced Carmelite nun. Her blood sisters were also nuns and they insisted she should write a memoir two years before her death at the age of 24. The book contains her childhood memories from the tragedy of the loss of her mother and her childhood nervous fits to finding peace in the convent. To a large extent the book deals with her spiritual search and describes her thoughts, emotions and beliefs she developed during her service. In the last eighteen month of her life, Therese fell into a crisis of belief, when she was tormented by the doubts, which he had to overcome. Suffering a severe form of tuberculosis, Therese perceived this illness as a one of her last examinations of faith and transformed her pain and suffering into the feeling of happiness based on her faith in salvation. This memoir became a very influential book on spirituality, which made Therese famous beyond the borders of France and remains an important piece of spiritual literature today.

"L'Histoire d'une Âme, the spiritual autobiography of Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, is a poignant and luminous account of a young 19th-century French Carmelite nun. This intimate account, written on the orders of her superiors, traces the extraordinary spiritual journey of a simple, loving soul. Born Marie-Françoise-Thérèse Martin in 1873, Thérèse entered the Carmelite convent at Lisieux at the tender age of 15, driven by an ardent love for God. Through the pages of her autobiography, she reveals her "little way" to holiness, a revolutionary approach to the spiritual life based on absolute trust in God's merciful love. Thérèse shares her mystical experiences, inner struggles and moments of grace with disarming sincerity. She describes her life in Carmel, her relationships with her sisters in religion, and her profound understanding of the Gospel. Her story culminates in her discovery of her vocation: to be "love at the heart of the Church". This book fits perfectly into Amazon's "Spiritual biographies", "Mystical literature" and "Lives of saints" categories. It offers readers a fascinating insight into the soul of a young woman whose life, though short and seemingly ordinary, had a profound impact on the Catholic Church. The book reveals how Thérèse, through her contemplative life, developed a spirituality accessible to all, based on small, everyday acts of love. Her "little way" inspired millions of people around the world, making her one of the most popular saints of modern times. "The Story of a Soul" remains a classic of spiritual literature, offering hope and inspiration to all who seek to deepen their relationship with God in simplicity and love.

As we become acquainted with the histories of those in whom, in long succession, God has been pleased to show forth examples of holiness of life, it seems as if every phase of human existence had in the history of the Church received its consecration as a power to bring men nearer to their Maker. But there is no limit to the types of sanctity which the Creator is pleased to unfold before His Creatures. To many, on reading for the first time the story of Sister Teresa of the Child Jesus and of the Holy Face, it came almost as a shock to find a very youthful member of an austere Order, strictly retired from the world, engaged in hidden prayer and mortification, appearing before us to reveal to the whole world the wonders of the close intimacy of friendship to which her Divine Spouse had been pleased to call her. Certainly the way by which Soeur Thérèse was led is not the normal life of Carmel, nor hers the manner whereby most Carmelites are called to accomplish the wondrous apostolate of intercession to which their lives are given. But no less certain is it that, in her particular case, her work for God and her apostolate were not to be confined between the walls of her religious home, or to be limited by her few years on earth.

Saint Thérèse of Lisieux (or Saint Thérèse of the Child) was a French Carmelite nun. She is also known as "The Little Flower of Jesus." She felt an early call to religious life, and overcoming various obstacles, in 1888 at the early age of 15, became a nun and joined two of her older sisters in the cloistered Carmelite community of Lisieux, Normandy. After nine years as a Carmelite religious, having fulfilled various offices such as sacristan and assistant to the novice mistress, and having spent the last eighteen months in Carmel in a night of faith, she died of tuberculosis at the age of 24. The impact of The Story of a Soul, a collection of her autobiographical manuscripts, printed and distributed a year after her death to an initially very limited audience, was great, and she rapidly became one of the most popular saints of the twentieth century.
