I'm looking for a book recommendation

[RyanJPII]

I’m looking for a good book to read. I like books with a wisdom figure and some philosophical dialog. Some examples are the way of the pilgrim, mountain of silence and brothers karamazov.

Anyone have good recommendations?

I just finished Pope Francis’s The Name of God is Mercy, which I quite enjoyed.

Take a look at St. Augustine’s On the Free Choice of the Will. It’s written as a dialogue and you may find it interesting.

The whole thing is available as a PDF here: philonew.files.wordpress.com/2016/08/augustine-augustine-on-the-free-choice-of-the-will-on-grace-and-free-choice-and-other-writings-2010.pdf

Carlo Carretto’s Letters from the Desert

Some of my favorites from the last year are Before The Living God by Ruth Burrows OCD, *More of the Holy Spirit *by Sr Ann Shields, and *Poustinia: Encountering God in Silence, Solitude and Prayer *by Catherine Doherty.

I also very much enjoyed the book *Jesus a Pilgrimage *by James Martin. It brought alive for me the holy land and the places Jesus walked and lived; I really enjoyed it a lot.

Happy reading!
