This fascinating true story could have taken place in North America today rather than in Africa and Italy during the fourth century. Every woman who has ever worried and prayed over her loved ones can learn from Monica that constant, fervent prayer will be answer -- perhaps not as quickly as one would like, but in God's own time and way.
I have always wanted to learn more about St. Augustine, however his Confessions was quite intimidating. This book is a very easy read and tell the story from St. Monica's birth until her death. I only wish that it had ended at St. Augustine death instead. I highly recommend this book.
