I, Francis 40th Anniversary Edition

The 40th anniversary edition of an Orbis classicFrancis of Assisis spirituality and life explained in an inimitable voice that could only be his own, except that it was Carrettos.

I was born in Assisi, in Italy, eight hundred years ago. And eight centuries later I still remember a thing or two. . . . Middle class rich boy that I was, I never would have thought that it would be the poor who would be my salvation. . . . It was they who would put me back on my feet

Carlo Carretto
