Book Review:
This book by Fr. Derrick Mendis SJ is a heartfelt collection marking a significant milestone—25 years of priesthood. As the title suggests, it weaves together reflections, deep thoughts, personal reminiscences, and spiritual reveries. The strength of the work lies in its personal and authentic voice, offering readers a glimpse into the inner life of a dedicated Jesuit in the Sri Lankan context. It serves as both a personal memoir and a source of spiritual inspiration for fellow believers. The prose is contemplative and accessible. While its primary appeal will be to the Catholic community, especially in Sri Lanka, readers interested in cross-cultural religious experiences or vocational memoirs may also find it valuable. It is a niche but sincere publication that celebrates faith, service, and introspection.
