We see his mystical friendship with Chiara di Offreducci, a noblemans daughter who turns her back on the world to join him, and finally, the frivolous young Francesco on the deserted road where his encounter with a leper leads him to an ecstatic embrace of God. Salvation is at once an illuminating glimpse into the medieval world and an original and intimate portrait of the man whose legend has resonated through the centuries.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51819517772064,"sku":"NEW0375708839","price":19.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61i52T5i_CL.jpg?v=1781133553","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/salvation-scenes-from-the-life-of-st-francis-0375708839","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
