A book with heart

I have read several books about St. Therese (including her autobiography) and like her sister Marie, I understood the words but the "Little Way" always seemed rather unremarkable, or maybe even indeterminate, to me. This book vitalized the rhetoric and presented a Therese who was much more alive and human than I had perceived before. Her Little Way, as presented here, resonates on an emotional level as opposed to an intellectual one and is all the more accessible.

This is a book that operates on multi-levels: It is a warm and humane story of both love and death, a historical novel set in an age of innocence or a theological thesis that really isn't. It is a book with heart that can be read for whatever one needs, or takes, from it. A very good book. I liked it a lot.

A Love Letter To Us All

The Story of a Love can really be described as Therese's love letter to us all. Her simple message of God's love and mercy comes vibrantly through in each letter to Maurice and his response echoes our own acceptance of this message. Comforting, inspiring and encouraging, these letters exemplify how each of us can transform lives and change hearts with a simple message of hope and love.

A book that will touch your heart in a unique way

Even for those familiar with St. Therese, one of the most popular Saints of the Church, this powerful book will move readers in a special way. Bishop Ahern's insights about each letter add a richness and context to the letters, which even by themselves are breathtakingly beautiful. This book challenges us to live our lives better and to live the Gospel, and shows that it can be done.

A fundamental book for all who love her ... Saint Therese!

When I thought I had read everything about Saint Therese and her little way, I read Maurice and Therese ... The relationship of "petite Therese" and Maurice talks to the heart of everyone trying to walk the path of the "little way". It is a book I wish was translated to my language, so all of my contry, so found of this saint, could love her even more ... This book is a surprise even for those who already read the complete works of Saint Terese, including all of her letters.


Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Just when I thought I could not love St.Therese anymore than I do, a dear friend tells me about this book. I feel this book was written just for me,as St.Therese has that way of making a person feel very special! I find myself "visiting" with St.Therese all through my day now. Treat yourself to this book!
