Cool story about a Harvard Grad and prominent lawyer at the height of her career who enters the Carmelites in her forties. This women who never read spiritual books picked up and read about a Saint totally unknown to her – THe Autobiography of St. Teresa of Avila. Edith Stein (St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross) had a parallel conversion from the height of the University to Carmel after reading the same biography.

Congrats to her!
I bet many readers wish it was as brief as the autobiography of St. Therese of Liseuex, eh!
Such folks are wimps. Come on! Get into a thick and chewy book sometime!
