Love asks with interest in the other, not in need.
It seeks in positive openness, not like its lost.
It knocks to achieve interest from the object, without demanding.
It finds, and delights in what is found
In fourth-century North Africa, peasant girl Leona falls in love with a Roman aristocrat – the future Saint Augustine. Their story unfolds against the backdrop of Rome’s fall and Christianity’s rise. Drawn from Augustine’s autobiography, The Saint’s Mistress breathes life into the previously untold story of his beloved mistress.
