Her stories fromthe desert sages are wonderful and extremely funny, and several of herinsights are insightful and very helpful.I found the chapter on obediencein particular to be one of the most pithy, eloquent, and well-writtensummaries on such a loaded topic that I have ever encountered.One cantell that she is a clinical psychologist from that chapter!
The onlycriticisms I have are that the content is definitely dated:many of herspecific images no longer apply, especially in world politics, her languageis occasionally didactic and flat."Prayer is not magic.Prayer isnot..." and so on.Also, a minor linguistic point:she tends tostart each chapter with an image, relate the image to the topic, discussthe topic, and then return to the image. This is fine for occasional use,but grates on repetition.Also, those not familiar with Christianity,especially with monastic communities might want to do some backgroundreading first, as some of the images are quite specific.Overall, a veryinteresting discussion on how to apply the Rule of St. Benedict to today'sworld.
