A vida extraordinária de São Roque

This is the chronicle of Roque of Montpellier, son of a wealthy family, who turned his back on the destiny of comfort and fortune that was reserved for him by inheritance to devote himself body and soul to the life of a pilgrim.
It is the account of a journey filled with dangers and adversities, challenges that grow larger with each step taken in the setting of a Europe devastated by the Black Death.
"Between what the legends whisper and the chronicles echo, the story of Saint Roch is told, the patron saint against the plague and protector of epidemic victims, a hero of an extraordinary life."
