In this gripping novel of faith and persecution, Bl. Newman tells
the story of Callista, a young pagan woman, loved by a Christian
man, who is posed with a choice between denying Christ or
professing faith and the highest cost.
Writing as both a convert and a scholar of the early Church,
Newman presents his reader with a rich and challenging story,
deeply personal and also highly informative in its representation
of early Christian life amid pagan society, in its divine raptures
and earthly pains.
This edition features the original text of Newman's novel along
with additional notes by Soren Filipski (MA, Franciscan University
of Steubenville) providing explanations of various terms in Latin
and other ancient languages that appear throughout the text.
