In 1941, a brilliant, good-looking young man decided to give up a promising literary career in New York to enter a monastery in Kentucky, from where he proceeded to become one of the most influential writers of this century. Thomas Merton's daily journal, the Sign of Jonas depicts the brilliant writer's daily life; it is both an absorbing story and deep source of spiritual refreshment.
