Merton Biography Praised by Fellow Monk
Posted by Mark Shaw on December 1, 2009
Interested in whether Thomas Merton death was an accident or whether he was murdered? Want to know if he consummated the forbidden love affair with student nurse Margie Smith? Wondering if Merton was an alcoholic? All this and more are featured in the new Merton biography, “Beneath the Mask of Holiness: Thomas Merton and the Forbidden Love Affair that Set Him Free.” Fellow monk Peter Mursak calls the book, “fair, honest, provocatively entlightening, and a highly entertaining read.”
