Pulitzer Prize finalist Maurice Manning says of the volume: \u201cThese poems pinpoint the tensions inherent in a spiritual life. The self must be present and yet the self must be willing to be negated. One seeks knowledge but also freedom from knowledge. One must be at home with what is said through silence. These are some of the mysteries of faith and the words of these poems invite me into them. By reading, we partake of these words and much more. It is a joy to have this book.\u201d \u2014Mention by The International Thomas Merton Society<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/paracletepress\/photos\/a.10150684800182328.407590.141915492327\/10153027025902328\/?type=1#amp;relevant_count=1\" title=\"\" target=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img\" src=\"https:\/\/fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net\/hphotos-ak-xap1\/v\/t1.0-9\/q85\/s130x130\/10929097_10153027025902328_2330716104042250039_n.jpg?oh=1bdfdcb5c483aa0df5d89dfe007f9e61#amp;oe=556DCA8C#amp;__gda__=1433328711_ef10e7878d410a9eb54e9172ab141f7d\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Unquiet Vigil: New and Selected Poems by Paul Quenon, OCSO (Orleans, MA: Paraclete Press, 2014) features work developed from five decades of monastic life at the Abbey of Gethsemani.
