St Monica. An amazing example of a devout Christian life, but perhaps most well remembered for her constant prayer for one of her sons, and for what
he did when he eventually converted to Christianity - because her son was St Augustine.
Monica features often in his
Confessions, one of his most well known and influential books - and which was described by Henry Chadwick as a book that will '
always rank among the great masterpieces of western literature.'
