The Seven Storey Mountain is one of the greatest spiritual classics of our time. Here is an extraordinary testament of an intensely active and brilliant young man who decided to withdraw from the world only after he had fully immersed himself in it. At the age of 26 Thomas Merton entered a Trappist monastery.
