Don BrophyReseñas

The life and times of St. Catherine of Siena, a mystic and Italian saint from the Middle Ages, are described in this rich biography. The saint's life is explored in the context of feminism and the roles of women in the Late Middle Ages, and the way in which this particular woman was able to utterly transform the Roman Catholic Church and direct even the most senior clergy of the Church. This is the story of the humble Dominican lay woman from whom the Pope himself sought advice.
