Il cardinale Angelo Comastri, con lo stile caldo e coinvolgente che lo caratterizza, ci regala un libro che racchiude conversioni sconvolgenti e significative che hanno avuto la Vergine Maria come strumento privilegiato. La Madre di Dio, colei che pi di chiunque altro ha accolto la Buona Novella che Dio amore (1Gv 4,8), da quando ha udito il Figlio sulla croce che le ha detto: Donna, ecco tuo figlio (Gv 19,26), non ha mai smesso di “fare da mamma” a ogni figlio per il quale Ges ha versato il suo sangue. E i figli che pi preoccupano il cuore di una mamma sono i figli difficili, i figli inquieti, i figli scappati di casa. Proprio di questi ci racconta la penna dell’autore; storie vere che documentano l’opera instancabile di Maria: alcune fotografie della sua maternit sempre attiva, straordinariamente attiva per riportare alla casa del Padre tutti i figli lontani.
