This Living Mirror: Reflections on Clare of Assisi

Rarely does a book of this calibre come along that brings to so much light the mind and heart of "the footprint of Our Lady", St. Clare of Assisi. This book will be enjoyed by anyone who enjoys the writings of Mother Mary Francis, P.C.C. Sr. Teresa Francis, as a Poor Clare herself and having lived the life established by St. Clare, has a profound grasp of this beautiful spirituality and has been able to clarify many issues important to St. Clare, which seem to be confusing to those who do not understand this form of life. Unlike several books available on the market, Sr. Teresa Francis does not apologize for the thoughts and ideas of St. Clare. Rather, she shows their beauty and vitality in their most radical form. This Living Mirror is proof that there is no gap between the woman and her Order that lived in the 12th century and the Order that lives today.Wonderfully refreshing and a must for any lover of St. Clare or the contemplative life.
