![]() Salvation, Scenes from the Life of Saint Francis Valerie Martin BIOGRAPHY/MEMOIR 2002 PAPER 268 PAGES
A new and glorious life of Saint Francis, told as a sequence of discrete scenes. Martin brings a novelist's eye and tuneful ear to the task of biography, and the result is a book like a fresco cycle: painterly, luminous, and lasting. It's a splendid literary accompaniment to Giotto's frescoes in the basilica of San Francesco, Assisi.
