Description

When Elisabeth Leseur died, her atheist husband, Felix, found this secret diary she had kept. Page after page revealed to him the life of Christian simplicity she had lived amid the swirl of Parisian society. Elisabeth had used her frequent illnesses and Felix's constant efforts to destroy her faith as means to grow in love for him and for God. His eyes opened, Felix became a Catholic and later a priest. This beautiful diary charts a path to holiness all of us can follow.
