This book is more than a biography of a past saint. It helps us come into direct contact with the life of St John of the Cross, highlighting his solitude, travel, and religious formation. We see him, too, constructing monasteries, writing books, and caring for the sick. All of these factors are present in John's life, and this book describes them.
A novelty of this book is its realism in presenting persons and data. Going beyond the mere mention of John's travels, it counts the miles of his earthly journey one by one. The result is amazing. Roads and solitary places, documents and monuments, faces and cities; all of these bring John to life, thanks to the art of photography.
