It's a very profound story of a great saint, one who is not as well known as many others, but was a true worker for Jesus. The book reflects the times, and the Church as it operated then.

As hard as I tried I could not get into this book. I ordered the book because I was fascinated by Bernini's sculpture. I was interested in a true female doctor of the church at a time when women were little more than chattel. The book is meticulously researched but I found it dry and confusing. I was unable to finish it. After writing this review it is probable nobody will want to waste a credit on this book but I would spare my fellow club members the agony of this read.
