Editorial Reviews

"For those of us who regretted coming to the end of Father Arseny: Priest, Prisoner, Spiritual Father this new collection is truly an unexpected joy. These memoirs by his spiritual children place us around the dining room table with that holy man, listening to stories and wisdom that enlighten our own difficult times."

Book - Frederica Mathewes-Green

"An utterly overwhelming book: it is hard to read it without tears coming to one's eyes, and yet there is not a trace of sentimentality. Here are the stories of more Father Arseny's spiritual children, which might place alongside those told by Solzhenitsyn and others of the cruel inhumanity of life in Soviet Russia. These stories tell of love and prayer, of carrying one another's burdens in the most direct and natural ways.
