Titel: Sister Teresa
Auteur: Bárbara Mujica
ISBN: 9781585678341
Conditie: Beetje gebruikt

Spoiled with beauty, riches, and adoration, a young girl from Avila is sent to a convent by her parents to learn discipline, but discovers instead an unparalleled spiritual fervor—one so powerful as to be condemned as sinful by some.


She is Saint Teresa—known as a mystic, reformer and founder of convents, and the author of numerous texts that introduced her radical religious ideas and practices to a society suffering through the repressive throes of the Spanish Inquisition. In Barbara Mujica's masterful tale, her story—her days of youthful romance, her sensual fits of spiritual rapture, secret heritage as a Jewish convert to Catholicism, cloak-and-dagger political dealings, struggles against sexual blackmail, and mysterious illness—unfolds with a tumultuous urgency. Blending fact with fiction in vivid detail, painstakingly researched and beautifully rendered, Mujica's tale conjures a brilliant picture of sisterhood, faith, the terror of religious persecution, the miracle of salvation, and to one woman's challenge to the power of strict orthodoxy, a challenge that consisted of a crime of passion—her own personal relationship with God.
