Athletic, handsome, and always good for a laugh, Pier Giorgio Frassati was the charismatic leader of a band of rowdy friends. He smoked, pulled pranks, relished extreme sports, fiercely debated politics into the night… and secretly gave away his wealth to help the poor: a mother unexpectedly widowed, a homeless invalid, a boy without warm clothes… and plunged eagerly into intense experiences of Eucharistic prayer.
This inspiring biography that captures Frassati’s spirit, Saint Pier Giorgio Frassati: An Ordinary Christian explores the adventuresome personality, and forthright love of a man who succeeded in wresting holiness from everyday life.
