When Therese of Lisieux died of tuberculosis in 1897 at the young age of 24, a mere 50 people attended her burial; 28 years later, over half a million witnessed her canonization in Rome. Today she is one of the best-loved saints of all time. This book is a series of 'conversations' with this fascinating woman--nun, saint, and Doctor of the Church--who loved Jesus with her whole heart. Drawing on her letters, poetry, and journals, Jacques Gautheir 'interviews' Therese on her life, her faith and her 'little way' to Jesus. The result is a masterpiece. Enter into Conversations with Therese, and be prepared to be challenged, inspired and moved by the purity, honesty, humor and faith of St. Therese of Lisieux.
