Synopsis "Seeking Peace: Notes and Conversations Along the way "

Where can we find peace of heart and mind--with ourselves, with others, and with God? Arnold says most people are looking in the wrong direction. In a culture that bombards us with feel-good-about-yourself spirituality, Seeking Peace is sure to satisfy a deep hunger. There is a peace greater than self-fulfilment, a peace greater than nations no longer at war. But it will demand a relentless pursuit kept up only by hope and courage, vision and commitment. Seeking Peace explores many facets of humankind's ageless search for peace. It plumbs a wealth of spiritual traditions and draws on the wisdom of some exceptional (and some very ordinary) people who have found peace in surprising places.

Madeleine L'Engle (1918-2007) was an American writer known for her contribution to youth science fiction and fantasy literature. Her most notable work, A Wrinkle in Time (1962), earned her the Newbery Medal and has been translated into numerous languages.

This novel is the first in the Time Quintet series, which includes titles such as A Wind in the Door (1973) and A Swiftly Tilting Planet (1978). L'Engle also explored poetry and non-fiction, reflecting in her writings her Christian faith and interest in modern science.
