About this ebook
She embraced radical poverty. Led the first female followers of Saint Francis. Advised popes. Lived in deepest intimacy with Christ.
The story of Saint Clare of Assisi has been told many times. But never like this.
Madeline Nugent masterfully crafts years of research into a compelling biography that reads like a novel. She grounds her work in primary and modern sources, time spent in Assisi, and interviews with Franciscan experts, painting a vivid picture of the world of Saint Clare through the eyes of those who knew her best—and through the words of Clare herself.
