Happy Wanderer, A tribute to Late Fr. Anthony de Mello SJ

Fr. Anthony de Mello SJ breathed his last on 2 June 1987 in New York. To mark the 25th anniversary of his death, his younger brother, Mr Bill de Mello, has written a biography that reveals little-known facts about Tony’s family and early life. Entitled “Anthony de Mello SJ, The Happy Wanderer, A tribute to my brother”. The book was released on 22 April at St Stanislaus’, Bandra, Mumbai.

Bill calls it “a work of love” in which he has painstakingly recorded Tony’s spiritual evolution. The volume fulfils the need of a comprehensive biography of the man who has been described at various times as the Laughing Saint, The Happy Wanderer, a prophet and a rare mystic.

Details: Anthony de Mello SJ, The Happy Wanderer, by Bill de Mello: 252 pages, hardbound, with 14 pictures. Price Rs. 240.
