This popular introduction emphasizes the creative tension between solitude and contemplation and the call to be open to contemporary circumstances. McGreal shows how the figures of Elijah and Mary represent the symbolic poles in Carmelite spirituality, reflected in the witness of its best-known representatives, including Teresa of Avila, Therese of Lisieux, and Edith Stein.
