Autobiography of St Margaret Mary
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I hesitated to purchase this book after reading the long, detailed negative review by an earlier purchaser, but ultimately decided to buy it. I have not regretted this. Yes, the book includes mortifications that lay people would not practise, but it is also rich in detail of her visions. I have yet to come across the worst mortifications mentioned by the prior reader. That may be due to the way I read, but they havenn't jumped out at me. Each section of several paragraphs or more is briefly summarized in a sidebar, making the book easy to navigate by topics of interest. The famous vision of St MM's heart being carried into a furnace and then being replaced, aflame, within her, is well described. I have no problems recommending this book for anyone interested in the origins of the Devotion to the Sacred Heart. John Lough

I always give five stars to religious books. But this one really deserved it. Bravo!
