My Father's World is a memoir written by Thomas Merton's daughter, Margaret Rice, about her relationship with her famous father. Thomas Merton was a Trappist monk, writer, and social activist who lived in the mid-twentieth century. The book details Rice's childhood memories of her father, who was often absent due to his monastic life, but also deeply devoted to his family. She shares her experiences of growing up in a family that was deeply influenced by her father's spiritual beliefs and his commitment to social justice. Rice also explores her father's personal struggles, including his battles with depression and his search for meaning in life. Through her own reflections and memories, Rice provides a unique perspective on the life and legacy of one of the most influential spiritual writers of the twentieth century. My Father's World is a touching and insightful memoir that will appeal to readers interested in spirituality, family relationships, and the life of Thomas Merton.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
