Product Description
St. Thérèse's autobiography was first published soon after her death in
1897 at the age of twenty-four. Combining charming descriptions of family
and community life with a sense of humor and intense devotion to God, it
was an instant bestseller. But earlier editions often excluded passages,
and refined her use of the French dialect often spoken by peasants. This
remarkable new translation includes every word of the original text,
retaining the complete charm of the original. The result is a complete and
unabridged work, longer than most other editions available today.
Millions of hearts have been touched by St. Thérèse of Lisieux's desire,
not to be mighty and great, but to be a humble, little flower that would
gladden God's eyes as He glances down at His feet. Now, yours will be, too.
