Amazon.com description: Product Description: First published in 1939, Georges Bernanos’s Saint Dominic is the foundation for this small volume on the saint whose Order of Preachers recently celebrated its 800th Jubilee. Famous for his novels Diary of a Country Priest, Mouchette, and Joy, Bernanos brings the touch of the novelist to the much-neglected art of Christian hagiography, with St. Dominic as his subject. Under the deft touch of Giambrone’s translation, the bold, brash grammar of Bernanos’s sketch of the Preacher of Grace is brought to life for the first time in English. To accompany Bernanos’s work, Giambrone has also translated and introduced True Devotion to Saint Dominic, by Marie-Étienne Vayssière, O.P., as well as compiled a postlude of prayers and hymns to Saint Dominic and his Order.
