Fictional backstory of Ss. Perpetua and Felicity [the later called herein Felicitas]. The last chapter and I felt the best part of the book was a description of their martyrdoms, "ad bestias". I wonder if this last was taken from the primary source, on these two women. Writing style seemed different, otherwise the novel was too saccharine and preachy for my taste. Read Perpetua's diary instead.
