- Summary:
- The body and soul of this Second Edition of The Fifth Week are still the stirring accounts of the lives and deaths of Ignatius the founder and Xavier the missionary to the East; of Campion, Ciszek, and Chardin in Europe; of Brebeuf and Lord and Pro the West. We follow O'Malley's personal journey through questions and doubts to self-knowledge and the dynamic equilibrium of his commitment to life in the Society of Jesus. With humor and tolerance he records the drama and daily grind with sundry companions. The Fifth Week is a great companion for prospective Jesuits: It asks - with them - do you want to be a priest? religious priest? a Jesuit?
