3240 Letters to His Friends and Family (Book)

By Bl. Pier Giorgio Frassati. These letters detail “days that revolved around a routine of home, school and friends; weekends spent skiing in the mountains or swimming at the beach...even greetings to family pets” (translator’s notes). They reveal Pier Giorgio’s irrepressible humor and his pranks, his travels and his hobbies, but also his personal mission to the poor and sick, his fervent love of country and his intolerance for evil and injustice. A behind-the-scenes look at the extraordinary soul of a seemingly ordinary young man. Photos. 260 pp. Softcover.
