A review by hannahcomer4d
The Cloister Walk by Kathleen Norris

4.0

Norris is a patient speaker, as the Benedictines in her life have been patient with her. She describes daily life for both her and the monks and nuns she knows in all its humble and lovely details, never shying away from difficult questions and gracefully addressing stereotypes and assumptions. I found myself in turn amused, emotionally moved, and calmed by this text.
