For the greater glory of
God and for the spiritual
benefit of authors, publishers,
reviewers and readers.
THERESE, by Dorothy Day,
Fides, 1960, 178 pp., $3.25
Reveiwed by E. Matthews.
Of all the more modern
saints, the best known is pro
bably St. Therese of the Child
Jesus and of the Holy Face.
That is to say, the outline of
the chief events of her life are
familiar, but the meaning of her
life and her vocation and her
sanctity escapes many Catho
lics. When Dorothy Day first
heard of this Little Flower
of Lisieux, she, too, found no
personal message in the life
of a hidden Carmelite nun. To
the co-founder of the Catholic
Worker movement and the
editor and publisher of the
CATHOLIC WORKER news
paper, the Saint’s writings
seemed to be so much school
girl insipid floweriness.
Dorothy Day writes her book
with the freshness of discovery
and the desire to share the
result of the gradual realiza
tion of what St. Therese’s
“Little Way’’ can mean. She
writes for her own audience of
readers — people who like her
self are caught up in the social
movements of the day. For us
of the twentieth century, St.
Therese’s sentimentality can
hide the heroic character of her
life, and Dorothy Day has
apparently found it necessary
to defend this style of
expression to pelple who have
been infected with Freud’s
interpretation of life and love.
To write this biography,
Dorothy Day has had recourse
to an extensive bibliography and
has presented here a picture
of the Martin family as living
people who provided the en
vironment favorable to the per
fect blooming of the Little
Flower.
Dorothy Day wrote with the
desire to make known to
“workers’’ the saint’s little
way to holiness and to fill
the people with the hope which
characterized her sanctity. The
book of itself, however, adds
nothing new to present litera
ture; most readers would pre
fer the autobiography and other
definitive works which the
author has quoted extensively.

“ ‘This truly is the house
of God,’ I found myself saying,
'and the place where He listens
to His children, counsels them
and blesses them’. What a dif
ference between this cathedral
with its beautiful altar, holy
pictures and statues and the
four bare walls of the church
I attended. That visit was the
turning point in my life, for
then and there I felt that I
wanted to become a Catholic.
“I found myself going back
to pray and meditate, again
and again. When I told my
parents that some day I would
become a Catholic, they were
furious. ‘No, you must not,’
they warned, ‘for you would
no longer be welcome here.’
After my marriage, Jean Ben
son gave me some Catholic
literature and that disclosed

“I told my husband that I
wanted to become a Catholic,
but he objected vehemently. So
my daughter Pamela and I joined
the Episcopalian Church, the
nearest to the Catholic. The
rector asked me to give re
ligious instructions in a public
school, but I told him that
I would feel hypocritical if I
did, as I really believed in the
Catholic religion. He was
understanding and excused me.
Finally my husband realized
how much distress his refusal
was causing me and relented.
“I arranged with Father Hoy,
M.S.C., of Our Lady of the
Sacred Heart Church at Henley
Beach for the instruction of
Pamela and myself. To my
surprise, my husband said,‘I’ll
come with you, not to join but
just to listen.’ Three months
later the three of us were re
ceived into Christ’s true
Church. Now we are a truly
united family, and every day
our holy religion brings new
joy, happiness and blessings
to us all.”

“My Favorite Things:” the smell of salt air and the pound
ing of surf, the smell of bacon and eggs, St. Patrick’s
Day, Italian restaurants, Boston at dusk, New York City
at theatre time, clean sheets, the smell of burning leaves
in the fall, Ireland—O’Connell Street—trains, turf" fires,
the month of May, Beethoven, Bermuda shorts, literary
conversations, the smell of incense, the sound of Church
bells and fog horns and rain on the roof, fireplaces, cho
colate ice cream, charcoal broiled steaks, air mail letter,
white kid gloves, black dresses, new paper back books,
processions of nuns, Thomas Wolfe and Vincent Von
Gogh, First Fridays, roses, Sunday morning breakfasts,
fishing the Charles River, good company, heated debates
and silence, Celtic crosses, opening nights, white blazers,
Lourdes Shrine, old book stores and art galleries, early
morning and twilight. If I got into favorite people—saints,
wirters, and friends, this would go on “ad infinitum.”
I feel better already thinking on these favorite things, so
why not try it yourself on the next day when you are
bitten by a bee—or worse the rent comes due?
