WOUNDED PROPHET

Michael Ford

(A Portrait of Henri J. M. Nouwen)

Condition: Good+. Cover shows mild edge-rubbing and light age-spots; interior clean and unmarked; spine firm.

About the Book

Wounded Prophet is the first major portrait of Henri J. M. Nouwen priest, writer, spiritual guide, and one of the most widely read Christian contemplative authors of the late twentieth century. Michael Ford offers an intimate, balanced, and deeply humane account of Nouwens life, weaving together family history, vocational struggles, friendships, inner conflicts, and the spiritual longing that shaped both the man and his work.

Ford writes with sympathy but not sentimentality, revealing a Nouwen who was warm yet anxious, generous yet restless, creative yet wounded. Through interviews with Nouwens family and closest friends, Ford traces how the authors profound works emerged not from detached scholarship but from a life lived with emotional rawness, spiritual yearning, and perpetual searching.

A compelling biography for readers who found meaning in The Return of the Prodigal Son, The Inner Voice of Love, and other contemplative classics.
