Product Details
Dorothy Day has one of the best known names in the Catholic Church, especially for a woman and especially related to social justice. Long Loneliness The Autobiography of the Legendary Catholic Social Activist is the story of her life starting from her early life as a young journalist in Greenwich Village with its political and literary thought of the 1920's. The book talks about her conversion to Catholicism which meant the end of her Bohemian lifestyle and common law marriage and how she dealt with that change. Then it deals with her long association with Peter Maurin and the beginnings of the Catholic Worker Movement.
Day never wavered in her commitment to peace, non-violence, racial justice, and the cause of the poor and outcast. She was dedicated to "bringing about the kind of society where it is easier to be good". The Catholic Worker Movement was important then and you still find people involved in the work and action of the movement today. Long Loneliness gives you a fascinating look into the life of Dorothy Day who gave up so much in pursuit of the social justice she felt was so needed.
