At the heart of the quest for spiritual identity are found Thomas Merton's illuminating insights-leading from an awareness of the false and illusory self to a realization of the true self.

Dog-eared, tattered, underlined copies are found on the bookshelves of spiritual searchers everywhere. Now this Silver Anniversary edition brings this classic to a whole new generation. "This one door is the door of the Palace of Nowhere. It is the door of God. It is our very self, our true self called by God to perfect union with himself. And it is through this door we secretly enter in responding to the saving call to 'Come with me to the Palace of Nowhere where all the many things are one.' " —from Merton's Palace of Nowhere
