Editorial Review:
The New Revised Third Edition of Catherine Doherty's renowned modern spiritual classic!

Catherine Doherty brings readers the profound traditions of Christian spirituality surrounding the Russian word poustinia, which means "desert."

Men and women who desire communion with God can discover how the poustinia powerfully fulfills their yearning. Readaers are invited to leave the noise and harried pace of daily life to enter a place of silence and solitude. The author writes from her own experience with refreshing and startling Christian authenticity and a strong personal sence of spiritual authority.

Learn how to create a hermitage in which you can taste the joy of Christian solitude, and meet God face to face in the midst of a godless world.

Catherine emphasizes 'poustinia of the heart,' an interiorized poustinia, a silent chamber carried always and everywhere in which to contemplate God within. Learn how our desert can be in the marketplace, in the midst of countless conferences, traffic jams, bus trips -- or a hospital ward. Written by one who knows by experience, Poustinia brings consolation with its vision of a personal desert that can bloom in simple, profound prayer.

An essential guide to Eastern Christian spirituality for westerners.

"Of the many books on prayer that have been published in recent years, this is simply the best." -- Richard K. Weber, O.P.

Poustinia: Encountering God in Silence, Solitude and Prayer (Madonna House Classics) Reviews:
Once in a lifetime... 5 Star Review
2000-02-17 - Catherine Doherty's book, 'Poustinia', is one of those one-in-a-million books which will change the way you look at life. This book has had a profound influnce on me -- my life as a Catholic Christian has blossomed, and my relationship with God has been profoundly deepened. I heartily recommend this book to all who seek peace.

Find the quiet of the hermitage in the modern marketplace 5 Star Review
1998-08-16 - This wonderful guide to the spirituality of the East has new meaning since the reopening of Russia and the rebirth of religious expression there. I bought this book several years ago and found the message both practical and uplifting. I just read the book again and have been amazed at the new level of meaning that has surfaced, a result of my life experience since the first read in the mid-1970's. If you seek peace and a method to share peace with those around you, this text will become a reference and guide.
