Splendor of Sorrow For Sinners Only

In his book Splendor of Sorrow, Eddie Doherty styles himself and the "Blindman," who realizes that without help he cannot understand the significance of important happenings in our Christian heritage. He calls upon his friends, the saints, to lead him back through time, and help him to "see." With St. Francis, St. Martin, St. Michael, St. Therese, St. Anthony--and a host of angels and saints--the author collapses time and space to make us witnesses of key events in the life of Our Lord and Our Lady, which Catholic tradition refers to as the "seven sorrows" of Mary. We "see" each sorrow and joy through the eyes of the Blindman. "My friend, I am that Blindman...and so are you! At this late date in your soul's life, it's time for you to pick up this book and let it give you eyes to see. Let the Blindman awaken in you new gratitude for Jesus, Mary and the saints..." -- John L.
