Adapted from the Italian, this devotional life tells the story of Rita of Cascia in fifteenth-century Umbria. It follows her pious parents, her hard marriage to a violent husband, her widowhood and loss of her sons, her entry into the Augustinian convent, and the wound on her forehead that she bore as a sign of Christ’s crown of thorns.
