Mariette in Ecstasy (1st Edition) by Ron Hansen Paperback, 192 Pages, Published 1994 ISBN-10: 0-06-098118-0 / 0060981180 ISBN-13: 978-0-06-098118-1 / 9780060981181 A novel about convent life at the turn of the century? Hardly the makings of a page-turner, yet Ron Hansen's Mariette in Ecstasy is a gripping, even life-changing book. For the Sisters of the Crucifixion, each day is a ceaseless round of work, study, and prayer--one hardly separate from the other. |
