Here are some of the things My Domestic Church readers have been buying on Amazon!

This nifty little item lets you read e-books without the computer! It’s portable. This is the kind of item I would LOVE to have at the soccer field when the kids are practicing, or anywhere else when I need instant reading material. This is one personality trait Mr. Pete and I share – if we’re sitting, we have to be READING something. It’s a little pricey, but I’m going to keep my eye on it. Might be something to save for as a special anniversary gift for Mr. Pete when we hit the big 3 0!

Into Great Silence (Two-Disc Set)

I had never heard of this before but it sounds intriguing.

Nestled deep in the postcard-perfect French Alps, the Grande Chartreuse is considered one of the world s most ascetic monasteries. In 1984, German filmmaker Philip Gröning wrote to the Carthusian order for permission to make a documentary about them. They said they would get back to him. Sixteen years later, they were ready. Gröning, sans crew or artificial lighting, lived in the monks quarters for six months filming their daily prayers, tasks, rituals and rare outdoor excursions. This transcendent, closely observed film seeks to embody a monastery, rather than simply depict one it has no score, no voiceover and no archival footage. What remains is stunningly elemental: time, space and light. One of the most mesmerizing and poetic chronicles of spirituality ever created, INTO GREAT SILENCE dissolves the border between screen and audience with a total immersion into the hush of monastic life. More meditation than documentary, it s a rare, transformative experience for all.

  1. Ah, I just received my Into Great Silence set today, too! What a coincidence.

    Don’t you have a netflix membership? They have it there. I was able to see it at a theater and it was just wonderful. I can’t wait to see the extended footage, but I’m sure it will take me more than one night to make it through.

  2. Elena,

    Into Great Silence is one of my favorite films! It’s a must-see!

    I have it listed as my #1 favorite film for 2007 on Catholic Fire.
