Saint Catherine Of Siena And Her Times
By Margaret Roberts
The story of this 14th century holy woman of God might read like an epic bit of fiction, but it's all true! From her persistant letters to the Pope, exhorting him to purge from the Church the excesses and luxuries common at all levels during that time. Her call for him the return from exile in France to the hallowed ground of Rome, this was a woman unafraid of speaking clearly and directly to the Vicar of Christ on Earth. While desiring to live a cloistered life of prayer, she would be called to serve society by the Pope himself! Known for her sharp intelligence, and honest goodness, Catherine of Siena remains one of the most beloved Saints of the faithful today.
