Padre Pio (1887-1968) is one of the most well-known figures of the 20th century. Like Francis of Assisi at the end of his days, Padre Pio received the stigmata of the passion of Jesus at the beginning of his priestly life in the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin, and he bore them for fifty years. Multitudes of people went to visit him and regained hope thanks to him. Even today, they flock to San Giovanni Rotondo, where he lived. But beyond the man's exceptional gifts, this book allows us to discover the intense inner life that animated him, and in particular his humility. He was canonized by John Paul II on June 16, 2002.
