It gives a scintillating insights into of a very rare human being – Catherine of Siena. Her urgent message to her contemporaries was that God not only loved them but that He made them without needing them, for the very purpose of loving them. She burned with the desire that her friends, disciples and all society come to know and experience this love of God She was also passionate in urging all to come to have self-knowledge and freedom, found only in loving God's and receiving His love.

Paul Murray OP examines the depth and range of Catherine's vision of freedom, claiming that until now her understanding of freedom has received surprisingly little attention from readers and scholars. Murray demonstrates that a preoccupation with freedom is the 'fire' behind almost every page and paragraph she writes, and as a result freedom becomes her veritable obsession. He explores the liberating character of Catherine's teaching, with particular attention given to her understanding of fear as one of greatest enemies of freedom. Murray highlights the importance of self-knowledge in the journey from bondage of freedom, and employs the rubric of the Dominican motto, To Praise, to Bless, to Preach; as a benchmark to examine the remarkable freedom of Catherine's life and thought.
