Enduring Grace

This volume presents reconstructions of the lives, words and works of seven European Catholic mystics who speak to people's contemporary quests. From the recluse Julian of Norwich and the hospital administrator Catherine of Genoa, to political agitator Catherine of Siena and Teresa of Avila, Clare of Asisi, Mechtild of Magdeburg and Therese of Lisieux - these portraits present inspiring examples of women in community.
