The Story of a Soul: The Autobiography of Saint Therese of Lisieux (Deluxe Edition)
The beautiful style of Saint Thérèse’s writing will capture your heart, but it will be the power and efficacy of her lessons that will keep you returning day after day.
To match the beautiful style of the Little Flower, we have now made a beautiful and timeless edition of the book. With a deluxe leatherette hardcover, a satin ribbon, golden gilded edges, reinforced sides for longevity, smyth-sewn binding, and gold foil, this edition of The Story of a Soul will both enrich your soul and beautify your home.
Only written under holy obedience by the command of her superior, Saint Thérèse’s autobiography conveys the secrets of her great holiness, which she achieved through her simple and ordinary life. It teaches her “Little Way of Spiritual Childhood,” which she called her “elevator to Heaven.” An important lesson for all Catholics, her “little way of love and confidence” is drawn directly from Scripture and has been approved by Pope Pius XI as a way to holiness for all. Although she died at the age of twenty-four, Saint Thérèse was and is known for her great wisdom, and this magnum opus demonstrates the young Carmelite’s holiness and dependance on God.
Saint Thérèse’s autobiography has become a classic of Catholic literature, and it has been translated into numerous languages. The Story of a Soul continues to grow in popularity and millions of copies are distributed worldwide. No Catholic should be ignorant of the spiritual power of “little way” of Saint Thérèse. This beautiful edition, which is printed in the beautiful style of all the TAN Classics Deluxe Set, belongs on the shelf of every Catholic.
