Through a collage of reflections on people, places and times that have been part of her life, she shows the origins and requirements of a """"vocation that has no name"""". She finds proof of this in the lives of others - including Jacques Lusseyran, Scottish nun Sara Grant, Abbe Dubois, Antonia White and Emily Bronte.
