A memoir-guided exploration of solitude and spiritual practice
Doug McPhillips frames the hermit’s path as a contemporary practice rather than a withdrawal from the world. Drawing on his walks along the Camino de Santiago and on personal retreat, he connects pilgrimage, solitude, creativity, and spiritual reflection. The book moves between first-hand experience and practical guidance, including ways to make space for retreat in ordinary life. Its central tension is the effort to hold contemplation alongside service, and spiritual aspiration alongside imperfection and human limits. At 96 pages, it offers a compact introduction to the author’s understanding of ancient hermit traditions in a modern context.
