Industry Reviews
"THE MONK DOWNSTAIRS is an easy read about God. It seriously ponders the split between the contemplative life and life in the world while describing the most bedeviling aspects of simple survival on the secular plane....Does Love happen? Does God exist? Rebecca and Michael ask and discover answers to these questions in the midst of life's needs, not apart from them."
