About this title

Review:

"Dunne rightly insists that we cannot discover the light beyond the 'heart of darkness' unless we have a vision of humanity's relation to God that goes beyond the calculation of needs and their satisfaction."--Commonweal "This book is a sustained reflection upon two interrelated journeys. One is an actual riverboat voyage up the Amazon ... the other is the spiritual and intellectual struggle of the author to 'pass over' from personal religion to the religion of the poor, to move from isolated existence into the lives of others."--Canadian Catholic Review
