The Long Loneliness
Book • 1952
The Long Loneliness is Dorothy Day's compelling autobiographical account of her life.
The book recounts her journey from a bohemian lifestyle in the 1920s Greenwich Village to her conversion to Catholicism and her subsequent dedication to social activism.
Day co-founded the Catholic Worker Movement with Peter Maurin, establishing initiatives such as the Catholic Worker newspaper, hospitality houses, and rural farming communes.
The autobiography explores her struggles, spiritual growth, and the importance of community and service to others in alleviating the 'long loneliness' that she and many others experience.
Day's story is a powerful portrait of early twentieth-century America and the ongoing struggle for social justice and spiritual fulfillment.
