Vita Sackville-West

4.9/5 (9924 ratings)

Description:Vita Sackville-West wrote Saint Joan of Arc in 1936 at the age of 44, & had, at that point, already been writing for 30 years. At 14, Sackville-West published her first book, & at 14 Joan of Arc first heard the voices. Joan was 17 when she took command of the armies of France--a peasant girl in the early 15th century in charge of a nation's forces. At 19 she was captured by the British & tried as a witch by a church court. Before her 20 birthday she was burned at the stake. In 1920 she was canonized by the Roman Catholic Church as a saint. In a clever, brisk voice, Sackville-West tells the triumphant story of a French peasant girl raised in a country torn apart by the 100 Years' War who rose from poverty to military greatness.
