The Grande-Chartreuse

On the frontier between history and fiction, the Grande Chartreuse monastery tells its story. Listen as its great men remember: Bruno, the founder; Guigo, author of the Customs;

Dom Innocent Le Masson, the builder of the present Grande Chartreuse; Dom Ephrem Coutarel, an invaluable eye-witness of the Revolutionary period; and Dom Ferdinand Vidal, the artisan of the return following the carthusians'exile... and even the archivist Dom Antoine, a character imagined by the author so as to evoke the period of the Wars of Religion. With them, come into the mother-house of all Carthusians for the first time ever.

This book could not have been published without the advice and support of the Grande Chartreuse community of monks and René Bourgeois.
