Histoire d'une âme

This book is the spiritual autobiography of Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, detailing her own life experiences and reflections as a Carmelite nun. It is a firsthand account of her personal spiritual journey and her 'Little Way' philosophy.

The 'Little Way' is Saint Thérèse's unique approach to spirituality, emphasizing profound faith and love in everyday actions and small sacrifices. It offers a path to holiness accessible to everyone, regardless of their circumstances, by focusing on humility and trust in God.

Several film adaptations exist, including 'Thérèse' (1986) directed by Alain Cavalier, which focuses on her life in the convent. Another notable adaptation is 'Thérèse: The Story of Saint Thérèse of Lisieux' (2004).
