Informative for anyone interested in monastic life

The author, a Trappist monk, is know to friends of mine. The book is very reader friendly and also quite informative. The author describes the spiritual life of monastics in general with emphasis on the Trappist life. While this book does not specifically address how a lay person might use these spiritual practices, it is clear that one could begin to incorporate them into their daily life. This book could be useful for any person interested in deepening their relationship with God.Chapters include silence, work, prayer, and the other components of monastic life. Clear, understandable rational for the benefits of the specific practices are given. A minor drawback is a lack of reference to the Rule of Benedict or Holy Scripture for the practice. However, the readability of the book makes up for this.
