 The Dialogue
Racine Dominican Suzanne Noffke, an internationally recognized Catherinian scholar, writer and lecturer, has published translations of the works of Catherine, as well as numerous articles and a book of essays on Catherine's life and thought. She has also prepared a selective bibliography of recommended works which you may find useful.
The Dialogue, Catherine's crowning work, represents her bequest of all her teaching to her followers. She called it simply "the book," and in it she endeavored to share with her disciples and others her vision of life with God in Christ, composed in the form of a conversation between herself and God the Father.

The Dialogue can also be obtained through other major book sources or purchased in the bookstore of the Racine Dominican Retreat Department. (It is important to note, however, that a nineteenth-century translation by Algar Thorold is also available, but that translation is much abridged and often inaccurate. It is often simply advertised as The Dialogue, with no note as to its origins.)
