The narrative explores the transformative journeys of Merton following the election of a new Abbot, granting him newfound freedom. His travels to California, Alaska, and Southeast Asia lead to profound encounters, including meetings with the Dalai Lama and various monks, fostering a deep spiritual connection. Amidst the backdrop of the turbulent sixties and significant events like the assassinations of key figures, Merton's final year brims with potential and excitement, rendering his accidental death in Bangkok at fifty-three particularly poignant.
