BTW, can you recommend a good translation (perhaps with helpful commentary) of Theresa of Avila’s The Interior Castle?—neither of the local libraries has it.

The version I have (picked up on Ebay) is quite old, but the translation that has often been recommended to me is the one by Kavanaugh and Rodrigues:

http://www.amazon.com/Teresa-Avila-Interior-Classics-Spirituality/dp/0809122545/sr=8-2/qid=1161708491/ref=pd_bbs_2/002-7724011-1002437?ie=UTF8&s=books

EDIT: Ultimately with St. Teresa's works (as with St. John of the Cross), I think translations don't matter. If you get it, you'll get it with most translations; if you don't you won't no matter how good the translation 🙂
