Rose Hawthorne aspired to be a literary success like her father. With the publication of The Scarlet Letter, Nathaniel Hawthorne established himself as one of America's most well-known writers, and his popularity enabled the Hawthorne family to travel around Europe. Rose was anxious to pick up the pen and show the world what she could do.
God, on the other hand, had different plans for Rose. After a sequence of astonishing experiences, Rose converted to Catholicism and abandoned her pursuit for literary glory. Instead, she felt driven to use her skills to serve God and assist people suffering from terminal cancer. She even established a religious order, becoming known as Mother Mary Alphonsa. Her remarkable life story is now available in a fun comic book format.
Printed in a saddle-stitch paperback comic book. 32 pages.
