Faced with an ecclesiastical hierarchy that did not understand her suffering, the author recounts her admission to the Bonneval psychiatric hospital, where she was nearly subjected to an irreversible lobotomy. Encouraged by psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan, this book becomes a unique document on the encounter between faith, psychic pain, and the word as a tool for healing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book narrates the extreme experience of Marie de la Trinité, a nun suffering from profound existential and spiritual anguish. Confronted by the incomprehension of her ecclesiastical environment, which viewed her as a mentally ill person with no possibility of redemption, the author is institutionalized in the Bonneval psychiatric hospital. There, on the threshold of a brain surgery that could have left her without an identity, she begins to write. The text is a desperate yet hopeful dialogue, where faith faces the abyss of unreason. Through writing, prompted by Jacques Lacan himself, the nun not only documents her ordeal but also builds a bridge between the most radical anguish and the possibility of an inner peace attained through language and consciousness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain Themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe relationship between religious faith and mental health.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe therapeutic power of writing and the word.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eA critique of the lack of understanding in institutions, both ecclesiastical and psychiatric.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe experience of extreme suffering and the risk of medical dehumanization.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe encounter between spirituality and Lacanian psychoanalysis.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is intended for readers interested in autobiographical testimonies of great emotional and spiritual intensity.

The work transcends mere testimony to become an exploration of the boundary between reason and faith, madness and lucidity. The intervention of Jacques Lacan as a catalyst for the writing adds a layer of theoretical interest, but it is the direct and naked voice of Marie de la Trinité that sustains the entire narrative. It is essential reading for those looking for works that address human suffering without concessions, yet with an unwavering faith in the redemptive power of the word.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NED EDICIONES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53407586845019,"sku":"9788419407436","price":14.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1018\/0650\/6331\/files\/978841940743.jpg?v=1781857135","url":"https:\/\/kalamobooks.com\/en\/products\/9788419407436","provider":"Kalamo Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
