The Mountain of Silence: A Search for Orthodox Spirituality
by Kyriacos C. Markides
Format: Soft Bound
Description: An expert in Christian mysticism travels to a monastery high in the Trodos Mountains of Cyprus and offers a fascinating look at the Greek Orthodox approach to spirituality. Using an engaging combination of dialogues, reflections, conversations, and history, Markides continues the exploration of a tradition, which he began in Riding with the Lion, his earlier book about Mount Athos. In this new book, Markides follows Father Maximos, one of Mount Athos's monks, around Cyprus as Maximos establishes churches, convents, and monasteries as he discusses Orthodox spirituality in depth. An exciting and fascinating book. 256 pages.
