Tales of Grace: Reflections on the Joyful Mysteries

Elizabeth was one of those women who come into the world to undertake the profession of the compassionate old maid, the loquacious neighbor from across the street, ever-present at every birth, wedding, or funeral, wholeheartedly industrious and pious.... Story, whimsy, and lyricism combine in these tales of grace, making it possible to experience the Joyful Mysteries of the Rosary in a new way. Translated now for the first time into English, the great Italian writer's original, poetic vision will help you rediscover the tenderness and beauty in the miracle of Jesus's birth and childhood.
