National Catholic Reporter editor Thomas Fox has just reviewed Hidden in the Same Mystery: Thomas Merton and Loretto. The book chronicles the relationship between Trappist monk Thomas Merton and the Sisters of Loretto, especially Mary Luke Tobin SL, a good friend of Merton’s. From the review:
The full scope of the unusual relationship between Tobin and Merton has now been brought together between the covers in “Hidden in the Same Mystery.” This compilation of talks and reflections shows Merton’s deep understanding of religious life and his particular affection for this particular community of sisters.
