Description:     

The British novelist Evelyn Waugh became enthusiastic about monasticism. He agreed to edit Merton’s autobiography and the subsequent Waters of Siloe.

In this close examination of their friendship, we see Waugh’s coaching of a younger writer. Most of all, we witness Merton the writing student and spiritual master and Waugh the master of prose and conflicted penitent.
