Description
TO THE HEIGHTS A Novel Based on the Life of Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati by BRIAN KENNELLY
Born to a wealthy family in Turin at the dawn of the 20th century, Pier Giorgio Frassati was good-looking, popular and athletic. He spent much of his youth climbing the rugged Italian Alps. He was quick with a joke or a prank and enjoyed a good time. It seemed he was blessed with everything a young man could ask for. But he hungered for more. Though his family was rich, he spent most days in the slums of Turin, visiting the poor and serving the sick. His love for Christ burned within him and brushed off on everyone he met except his parents who frowned upon his religious practices and charitable work. Reaching them would be his last challenge, his final mountain to climb. Paper.
