The Road of the Heart`s Desire – An Essay on the Cycles of Story and Song

Autor John S. Dunne
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 noi 2002
"John Dunne has been pursuing human wholeness through the course of his many books. His insights into our completeness come out of his unique journey leading to the healing of his own separations: from the paths not taken earlier in life that return to join the one consciously chosen; from his relationships with others, leading to his meeting other people where we are most alone; and, ultimately, from his discovery of God's presence in his own experience of longing." --Carol Ochs, Hebrew Union College "The old master has been at work again John Dunne provides a rare combination of the poignantly personal with the utterly universal, a work of intense thought and reflection that erupts into song, a book that like a good friend pauses and responds to your questions about the life of the spirit as it pauses and responds to John Dunne's own doubts and difficulties and desires." --John T. Noonan, author of The Lustre of Our Country "Dunne is one of our finest writers of spiritual literature. His intellectual breadth alone marks his work as significant. His poetic style prompts slow and careful reading. . . . John Dunne offers nourishment to which we can return often." --Denise Carmody, Santa Clara University

Recenzii

"Dunne's prose is thickly layered with poetic and literary allusions and quotations, encouraging the reader to linger and reflect on the images described. The astounding breadth and diversity of literary and musical quotations reveal deep understanding in both of these fields which seem to be truly united in the author's life. Through his personal story, Dunne describes universal aspects of our existence as we journey toward reunion with God." —Perspectives in Religious Studies

“It is difficult to convey the subtleties of the yearning of our hearts for unity with God, others and the abundant pleasures of life on Earth. In this richly textured paperback, Dunne does just that, a commendable mix of philosophy, literary wisdom and theological acumen.” —Spirituality and Health

". . . A profound and profoundly personal essay on the spiritual path of the human being . . . this striking and original work of theology is highly recommended.” Library Journal

". . .Theology comes alive as a joyous celebration in the work of John Dunne." —Booklist
