Catholicism Editorial Review
The Unbroken Thread by Sohrab Ahmari is a compelling book that delves deep into the wisdom of tradition in an age of chaos. The author picks questions about life and God and takes the reader on a fascinating journey spanning history and religious and philosophical thinking, helping to answer those questions. Ahmari draws from traditions, values and experiences that come from times and places far away from each other. He explores both eastern and western cultures and how we can learn from the wisdom found in Greek and Roman philosophy, Jewish, Christian, Islamic philosophy, the rites of the African Ndembu tribe, Confucian philosophy and more. The book draws on the lives of men and women who lived in times of chaos and found strength in their values and beliefs, making examples of Seneca, Saint Augustine, Howard Thurman, Solzhenitsyn, Father John Henry Newman and many more. The author also taps from modern literature. The Unbroken Thread is not only a history lesson, but much like the Bible, weaves a tale of caution and hope from centuries of men and women who do their best to warm us and lead us on.
