Island. Stories about Elders

This book introduces the reader to the life of Orthodox elders — monks who chose the path of serving God and withdrawing from worldly vanity. Dmitry Orekhov lovingly and respectfully describes the everyday life, spiritual trials, and exploits of his... heroes, showing the price of achieving a "calm spirit".
The narrative not only describes the rules of monastic life but also touches on deep spiritual questions. The story of each elder represents a deeply personal journey of relentless striving for truth — a path of doubts and insights, joys and sorrows. Through these stories, the author creates an image of a special world where strictness coexists with comfort, spiritual composure with openness to people, and daily labors and cares with a wholly life in God.
