A Spiritual Odyssey

By Brian O'Hare

A Spiritual Odyssey" is the compelling story of a six-year journey on two converging paths - a burgeoning spirituality, and a dramatic physical degeneration that took the author to the doors of death. It is essentially a witness to the miraculous grace of God, and how it reaches into both soul and body. The author struggles with questions of a theological nature, but not in an academic way. The questions emerge from the practical, often confusing circumstances, in which the author finds himself as he copes with dying and tries to understand his growing spirituality. Significant commentators had this to say about A Spiritual Odyssey: 1. "Some of the medical descriptions chill the blood but the religious explorations are heart-warming .... a fine exposition of the riches of the Catholic tradition [David McLaurin, The Tablet] 2. Intelligent and sensitive...very moving...gives a graphic account of suffering and anguish...gives us wonderful vignettes of people he met on his journey. [Anthony Redmond, The Irish Catholic] 3. I read it with enjoyment and, I hope, profit. What distinguishes it from other spiritual works is the clarity of the prose and the honesty of the author [Professor Art Cosgrove, Vice-Chancellor, University College, Dublin] 4. It deserves a very wide readership as it has the potential to do a lot of good for God's holy people. I have bought extra copies for friends who will be deeply touched by it. [Fr. Sean Fagan, International Theologian, lecturer and writer.]
