(Softcover; HarperSanFrancisco, 1988; Pp.85)
In this collection of seven letters to his nineteen-year-old Nephew who is struggling to find his path in a world of confusion and apathy, Henri Nouwen writes from the conviction that Jesus is the centre of his own life. From that perspective he shares the joys and sufferings of his own spiritual journey. Each letter deals with deep questions in the light of the Gospel message. Powerful and profound, Letters To Marc About Jesus is Nouwen at his best—teacher, guide, and mentor. Ideally suited for personal or group retreats. Includes an index of Biblical references.

A reflection guide to accompany this book is available free of charge from the Henri Nouwen Society (E-mail: reading@nouwen.net to request a copy).
