«Noche oscura» is the mystical poem by San Juan de la Cruz, published in 2007 by Editorial Trotta in Spanish (164 pages).
San Juan de la Cruz recreates in this poem the journey of the soul towards union with God: the dark night is the trial of purification and detachment that precedes the light of divine love. The text combines images and symbols from the mystical tradition to express faith and hope in the midst of suffering.
For readers interested in Christian mysticism, spiritual poetry and Spanish religious literature.
John of the Cross was a Spanish Catholic priest, mystic, and Carmelite friar. He is a major figure of the Counter-Reformation in Spain, and he is one of the 38 Doctors of the Church.
