Has anyone here read this book? What are your thoughts on it? I feel that it champions a life centered around Truth that would resonate with many here (especially if you're Christian/Catholic like myself). I think as a downside it might exacerbate the tendency for isolated anons to worship their own intellect built up as a coping mechanism, but it could also steer them along a more spiritual path.But while reading, I wondered if there was an equivalent work to The Intellectual Life for discovering the Good- as someone who has only recently come to grips with the reality of the Good as much as Truth and Beauty, I'm looking for something that will allow me to incorporate morality into my life as much as Sertillanges advocates for the life of the monastic intellectual.Or is morality something that operates on a deeper, more foundational level than the pursuit for truth, and has more to do with genuine care for others? What are your thoughts on this? Where have you felt moral truths, in literature, fiction, and storytelling more broadly?
