I, Francis by Carlo Carretto

animus86's review

5.0

Simple and to the point but immersed in the Franciscan spirituality

5.0

This is one of my favorite books on Francis, presented in the first person by a Little Brother of the Gospel, who has lived as Francis did. I read it on a pilgrimage to Assisi and it sustained and challenged me. There is also a "Little Divine Office" at the end of he book that combines scripture and Francis which provides a day of prayer with Francis.

Those who know little of Francis might want to read a biography before reading this, but should not neglect reading this, slowly and prayerfully.
