Like The Last Temptation of Christ, Saint Francis is a fictionalized biography of a widely venerated Christian figure: Francis of Assisi, whose renunciation of his young man’s life of leisure and founding of a religious order dedicated to living in poverty and sharing the Gospels with all living things profoundly influence the ways in which Christians the world over worship and give service to their god even today.
Recounted in Nikos Kazantzakis’ striking prose through the eyes of the saint’s brother, Leo, the life of Saint Francis shines in this audiobook as a heroic example of inspirational leadership and boundless love for God and all his creatures.
