Story of a Soul, the third book of the Catholic Classics series, is created in collaboration with the Carmelites and uses the only full authorized English translation of this classic work.

Often considered one of the most influential and inspiring works of the Church, this classic yet relevant text was written by Doctor of the Church St. Thérèse of Lisieux and details her life and love for the Lord in spite  of trial and illness. Through the years, it has remained a key reflection on the spiritual life for believers who seek to love God with all their hearts.

Exploring topics that St. Thérèse learned throughout her life, Story of a Soul teaches Catholics how to embrace their spiritual “littleness” as a quick path to heaven, how to live their call to love, and how to choose God in the midst of great suffering. 

This text draws readers ever closer to God as St. Thérèse details the events of her life and her prayer, both of which were focused solely on deep intimacy with God and honouring him.

Featuring the only full authorized English translation, this special version renews Catholics' understanding and appreciation of this spiritual classic.
