St. Teresa of Avila persuaded her brother to run off with her to Africa to become martyrs. The plan failed, but after a wordly youth, Teresa's life became one long quest to serve God better and better--as a Carmelite nun. Spirited and down to earth, St. Teresa once said, "May God deliver me from gloomy saints." Impr. 33 pgs, PB
