Sabine Laplane:
Brother Roger - The Biography
The Founder of Taizé

Brother Roger was one of the outstanding personalities of the 20th century. His life was permeated by the call to reconciliation among Christians. Was he a prophet? A friend of the poor? A charismatic model for the young? With her unique biography, Sabine Laplane succeeds in creating a fascinating portrait of the founder of the Taizé Community.

He was a man of contradictions, a man of interior life, who was concerned to reconcile the faith of his evangelical origins with the mystery of the Catholic faith. Like no other, Brother Roger embodied the call to reconciliation among Christians that became more and more urgent in the second half of the 20th century. But who was Brother Roger? Sabine Laplane has succeeded in taking a new look at the life of this extraordinary personality, from his beginnings in Switzerland to his violent death in 2005. Anyone who wants to get to know Brother Roger must read this book.
