The Jeweler's Shop

Karol Wojtyla (Pope John Paul II)

Love is "one of the greatest dramas of human existence," writes Pope John Paul II. In this illuminating three-act play--here in the only English translation authorized by the Vatican--he explores relationships between men and women, the joys--and the pain--of love and marriage.

The action unfolds in two settings at once: a street in a small town, outside the local jeweler's shop (people go to buy their wedding rings there), and the mysterious inner landscape of personal hopes and fears, loves and longings. Each act focuses on a different couple: the first happily planning their wedding, the second long-married and unhappy, the third about to marry but full of doubts. Writing with power and understanding about a love that survives the grave, a love that has withered and died, a love budding out of complexes and insecurities, the Pope addresses such fundamental human concerns as: What does it mean to fall in love? When do we know that a love is real--and can it last? If it dies, how do we go on living--and loving again?

There are no easy answers, and there is no happy ending--such is the nature of men and women, and such is the nature of love--but there is hope, if we only acknowledge our need and accept the risks of a deep and lasting commitment.

This is a play full of wisdom on a subject of great relevance to all, and it provides a special insight into the thoughts of the man who, like no other, has captured the imagination of people of all faiths throughout the world. The Jeweler's Shop has been made into a full-length movie now available on video.

Karol Wojtyla--Pope John Paul II--has long been involved with the theater. As a student of literature, then priest, bishop and archbishop, he acted, directed, wrote dramatic criticism, made a Polish translation of Sophocles' Oedipus Rex, and has authored six plays.

The Man Born to be King

Dorothy Sayers

One of the most popular of Sayers' works, this famous play-cycle was originally written for broadcasting and was performed very successfully on BBC. Based on the Gospels, and completely faithful to the inspired accounts of Christ's life, Sayers adds unrecorded conversations, minor characters and all the details that give concreteness to the Gospel accounts.

She does this in such a realistic and engaging manner that the whole Gospel story comes alive as an actual event taking place in our midst. This is inspiring reading by a great Christian writer. "There is no other word but magnificent for this play drawn from the Gospels. Sayers' interpretation of the characters is simply brilliant. Her Jesus can bring tears to your eyes. You will be deeply moved--a powerful experience." -- Sheldon Vanauken, Author, A Severe Mercy

"Ultimately, great drama depends on doctrine--this is Dorothy Sayers' constant teaching. When we read the life of Christ as a drama, as Sayers shows it to us, we see how easily we could ourselves have taken part in it, how much *The Man Born to Be King* is needed by each of us." -- James V. Schall, S.J., Georgetown University

"Dorothy Sayers achieved the almost impossible task of giving us genuine religious drama which catches the awesome mystery of that true drama where the Eternal touches Time." -- Thomas Howard, Author, Chance or the Dance Dorothy Sayers (1893-1957) was best known for her detective fiction, most notably the Lord Peter Wimsey novels. A gifted medievalist, she also translated Dante's works and was the author of several collections of essays and six plays.

Summon Spirit's Cry

A Collection of Poems - Mother Mary Francis, PCC

"The poems of Mother Mary Francis arise--blossom would be a better word--in that region where our human experience finds itself challenged by the Faith. A sharp consciousness of the Liturgy, the religious life, and of the great mysteries of the Faith suffuses these utterances. One is awakened by the demanding syntax, the fresh vocabulary, and the curious focus (on everything from a turtle's eye to a Ph.D. examination to the Stations of the Cross). A book to be kept near one's Bible." -- Thomas Howard

"Mother Mary Francis' book of spiritual poetry is organized around themes of life and Liturgy that occasion her beautiful and touching poems. These poems will lead us to the reality she sees in her life as reflected in the word and world of God." -- Fr. James V. Schall, S.J.

"Mother Mary Francis is a poet in her own right. Her life has been centered on love, sacrifice, silence and prayer. This alone explains why the harmonious music of her words has the unmistakable ring of joy, the joy that can spring only from a heart that has given everything to God." -- Alice Von Hildebrand

Mother Mary Francis, P.C.C., abbess of a Poor Clare Monastery, is an accomplished author of books, plays, and poems, including A Right to Be Merry and its "sequel" Forth and Abroad
