Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"The Little Flowers Mother" is an inspiring biographical study of Zélie Martin, the mother of the renowned St. Thérèse of Lisieux. Written by Rev. Albert D. Dolan, this work delves into the life of a woman whose profound faith and domestic devotion laid the foundation for one of the Catholic Church's most beloved saints. The narrative follows Zélie through the complexities of nineteenth-century life, illustrating her roles as a dedicated mother, a successful professional, and a woman of deep prayer. Through an exploration of her personal letters and family history, the book portrays the challenges and triumphs of the Martin household. It emphasizes the spiritual environment that nurtured the "Little Flower," showing how Zélie's commitment to her children's religious education and her own pursuit of holiness influenced her family's legacy. This account serves as a testament to the power of Christian parenting and the quiet sanctity found in everyday life. "The Little Flowers Mother" remains a significant resource for those interested in Carmelite spirituality, the lives of the saints, and the historical context of the Martin family's journey toward canonization.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
