Therese of Lisieux (1873-1897) was born into a devout Catholic home in France. At the age of 15 she entered the Carmelite convent at Lisieux, where two of her sisters were already nuns. She died when she was only 24 years old, after a long struggle with tuberculosis. She was canonized by the Roman Catholic Church in 1925. Sometimes known as "The Story of the Little White Flower", this book was written at the request of her superiors, for the benefit of other nuns. When it was published, the story of her deep and simple piety attracted an enormous following. This edition is based on Thomas N. Taylor's 1916 translation from the first definitive Carmelite edition published in 1914.

Translated from the critical edition by John Clarke, OCD, 3rd ed. (1997). Includes general and biblical index, with 8 pages of photos. Two and a half years before her death in 1897 at the age of 24, as Thérèse Martin began writing down her childhood memories at the request of her blood sisters in the Lisieux Carmel, few could have guessed the eventual outcome. Yet this Story of my soul, first published in 1898 in a highly edited version, quickly became a modern spiritual classic, read by millions and translated into dozens of languages around the world. Decades later, in response to growing requests from scholars and devotees of the Saint, a facsimile edition of the manuscripts appeared, along with more popular French editions of what the Saint had actually written. Here, expressed with all of Thérèse's original spontaneity and fervor, we rediscover the great themes of her spirituality: confidence and love, the little way, abandonment to God's merciful love, and her mission in the church and world today. Father John Clarke's acclaimed translation, first published in 1975 and now accepted as the standard throughout the English-speaking world, is a faithful and unaffected rendering of Thérèse's own words, from the original manuscripts. This new edition, prepared for the centenary of the Saint's death, includes a select bibliography of recent works in English on Thérèse, along with a new referencing system now widely used in studies of her doctrine.
