Dark Night of the Soul narrate the journey of the soul to mystical union with God. The soul experiences two necessary purgations on the path to Divine union: the sensory and spiritual parts of the soul.

A hauntingly powerful piece about the soul's journey to the place of God, known in this work as Mount Carmel. Although this book refers to the Dark Night that the soul must pass through, it also refers to many situations and realities that the soul must pass through in its conflict with this world and union with God.

Claiming to be a literary interpretation, this poem of forty stanza's is loosely based on the Biblical book of Song of Songs. This story follows a bride that has been separated from her bridegroom and her search for him. If it is not obvious enough from the reading of the poem itself and St. John of the Cross's extensive explanation afterwards, the poem is a literary interpretation of Song of Songs, but also of the soul's search for Jesus Christ.

A manual of the so-called simple cautions and points of light and love of the world's most celebrated mystic, arranged not only for religious but for lay-people who are eager to discover the ascending paths to the mystical mount of Carmel, whereby they may reach peace of spirit and the true intimacy of divine love.
