Teresa of Avila
God Alone Suffices

Written by Jean-Jacques Antier;
Translated by Dr. Claire Quintal

In this biography, internationally-known author Jean-Jacques Antier recounts Teresa’s life in vivid detail, from her earliest years as a romantic and worldly young woman to her passionate love for Christ and subsequent efforts to refound the Carmelite Order. He carefully explores the spiritual and psychological depths of a remarkable woman—one who has left an indelible mark on the Church and the world.

Easily one of the most amazing figures history has known, St. Teresa of Ávila led an exceptional life for a woman of her time as well as our own. Hailed as a Doctor of the Church, foundress, reformer, mystic, and prolific spiritual writer, she responded to the vocation God entrusted to her, allowing nothing to stand in her way.

Teresa of Ávila: God Alone Suffices includes a full-color insert, a map of important foundations, chronology, genealogy, and an index of names.
