New Habits: Today's Women Who Choose To Become Nuns
Description:
Why would young women in their 20's and 30's choose to enter a convent? Are they running away from the world? Are they seeking to obey a Mother Superior to escape personal responsibility?
Isabelle Losada has talked at length to ten novices who had homes, jobs, boyfriends, money and freedom who explain why they are seeking a more radical lifestyle. They reveal themselves openly and challenge all the stereotypes of the typical nun. Isabel set out with a high degree of cynicism, determined to expose their weaknesses and dubious motives. She came away with a tremendous admiration for these women who have sought a greater freedom in a God-centered life. This is a challenging book, full of humour and suprises, and an inspiration to ask what is really important in our lives.
