The acclaimed author of Home Schooling returns with Midnight Train to Prague, a timeless tale of friendship, romance, betrayal, and survival that spans the turbulent decades of the twentieth century, through two world wars and between countries and continents.

In 1927, as Natalia Faber travels from Berlin to Prague with her mother, their train is delayed in Saxon Switzerland. In the brief time the train is idle, Natalia learns the truth about her father--who she believed died during her infancy--and meets a remarkable woman named Dr. Magdalena Schaeffer, whose family will become a significant part of her future. Shaken by these events, Natalia arrives at a spa on the shore of Lake Hev z in Hungary. Here, she meets Count Mikl s Andorj n, a journalist and adventurer. The following year, they will marry.

Years later, Germany has invaded Russia. When Mikl s fails to return from the eastern front, Natalia goes to Prague to wait for him. With a pack of tarot cards, she sets up shop as a fortune teller, and she meets Anna Schaeffer, the daughter of the woman she met decades earlier on that stalled train. The Nazis accuse Natalia of spying, and she is sent to a concentration camp. Though they are separated, her friendship with Anna grows as they fight to survive and to be reunited with their families.

Very thoughtful, encouraging, and personal reflection of her life
St. Teresa’s personal reflection of her life brought me a clearer light and understanding of her other more theological writings. What impressed me most was how she revealed her own many short comings and failures despite the great graces she received. This was a real encouragement to me in my own journey toward becoming a saint.

Illustrated ?
The content of the book is well worth reading. The claim that it is "illustrated" borders on dishonesty. There are 14 thumbnail photos, none of which have anything to do with the life of Teresa of Avila. However, it was worth $0.99 (for the Kindle version).

Great Inspiration
Format: Paperback
I love this book so much. If you want to be inspired to feel God's presence in your life, this book does it for me. I love her story and the way she writes. I find her wit very amusing at times. Here's one. "It seems the Lord not only wanted my soul, but my body as well as he began to lift it off the ground -- and at the most inopportune times."

Loved it...she really spoke to me....
Format: Paperback
"Reading any other works of Teresa of Avila without having read her autobiography robs the later works of the one thing they need: context"...I wholeheartedly agree!! This autobiography is a truly enriching, and I constantly refer back to her writings. I previously read Interior Castle with some difficulty, but have re-read it since reading this "treasure" and it has made a world of difference. St. Tesesa's autobiography is an inspiring work...a life-changer/soul-saver, and a must have for a catholic bookshelf.

Great Role Model for girls and women.
Format: Paperback
As a Catholic who has come back to the Church this past year, trying to catch up on my lack of knowledge of the Saints. Still in process of reading it and highlighting lots of text. Excellent text, format. Easily readable. Right size to put in my purse and carry with me when I go to medical appts. at Tufts Medical Center in Boston.
