Saint Joan (2001, Penguin Books) 4 stars

Review of 'Saint Joan' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

A play about the life of Joan of Arc. I liked this quite a bit. It was funny. There was a good balance of Joan’s fervent belief and varying degrees of belief from other characters, offering skepticism, faith, and desperation. The ending was too religious for me, but then again, she is a saint. If you like Joan of Arc and want to know what famous authors have said about her, this is worth a read. I’d like to read Mark Twain’s book about her eventually.
