Summary
People are endlessly fascinated by the mystery of nuns as they walk among us in the world.
In The Calling, Catherine Whitney follows the daily routine of a Dominican community for a year. She reveals a rare inside view of these lives of devotion, while answering the questions that most fascinate the lay public. The Calling is Whitney's search for answers from a community that has existed for centuries but is still evolving. The story contains elements of romance, personal heroism, suffering, existential anxiety, and boundless joy. It is a human tale cloaked in a superhuman mantle.

Had to check it wasn't a fiction book
The style of this supposedly non fiction book is very odd, as the setting of the scene is descriptive in a style I tend to only come across in novels. Really didn't enjoy this - not a good look at what the book perports to be about.
