- Summary:
- "The time has come to discover Ida Görres. This collection of vibrant, piercing, often wry essays was written in the tumultuous years surrounding Vatican II, when "demolition troops" bent on destruction mingled with saints like Karol Wojtyła. Rising out of this confusion, Görres, with her colorful style, reveals the raw, majestic splendor of the Catholic Church, which is more craggy, complex, and solid than any Alpine mountain." -- Book cover flap.
