Barb of Fire:  Twenty Poems of Blessed Elizabeth of the Trinity : with Selected Passages from Blessed Columba Marmion, OSB
By Elizabeth Catez, Elizabeth of the Trinity, Columba Marmion, Alan Bancroft

Elizabeth Catez, a Carmelite nun born in the late nineteenth century, loved God with an astonishing intensity. Alan Bancroft has created new and vivid translations of twenty poems published soon after her death, and shows how these poems interlock with the prose of the celebrated Benedictine Abbot Marmion. Barb of Fire is a fascinating synthesis of Carmelite and Benedictine spirituality.
