Reseña del editor:

That time will come to most of us, says Mary Hope. It will be provided by advancing age or sometimes, by illness. Mrs. Hope, in late middle age when she began keeping "a memorandum in preparation for...the perfect union with God, " never minimizes the pain, loneliness, and fear that may accompany aging. Her vision soars beyond this life's trials, however, to God's blessing in changed circumstances. Written over 40 years ago, Towards Evening exposes the shallowness of today's attempts to deny mortality. Old age and infirmity may bring rigorous rituals, but they can lead to a deepened experience of God. This is a book of gentle wisdom for all who seek time to pray, to meditate on the divine mysteries, to grow toward union with God.
