Treatise on Purgatory

by St. Catherine of Genoa

This classic work describes the pains and consolations of Purgatory, as seen by the Catholic mystic St. Catherine of Genoa.

 

Although brief, St. Catherine's Treatise is dense with detail and describes the ordeal of Purgatory as both intensely painful and deeply suffused with the presence of God.

 

Her understanding was based on her own experiences of being "placed in the Purgatory of God's burning love", which she felt physically and mentally during a visionary experience.
