“[We] read Nouwen…to discover new possibilities in our faith.”
—
New Review of Books and Religion
A profound and beautiful collection of intimate writings, Henry J.M. Nouwen’s
Letters to Marc About Jesus
recalls the author’s correspondences with his teenage nephew, a boy struggling with issues of faith and spirituality in an apathetic age. The much-beloved author
of
The Wounded Healer
and
With Open Hands
—named alongside such notables as C.S. Lewis and Thomas Merton as one of the most important Christian writers of the 20th century—Nouwen writes from the heart in the deeply personal
, as he imparts a powerful wisdom born of an unassailable faith.
