Description
Ribet dedicates the work to her son Joseph, who appears to have been killed in World War II. Her goal is to help those who, in encouraging or allowing their children to become nuns (or priests), pretend that their children are following a "vocation" for which they are in fact not called, preparing them for a life of renunciation and unhappiness.
