Resumen del Editor

“We stopped, astounded, before the apparition. We were so close that we were inside the light which surrounded her, or rather, which radiated from her.” (Lucia de Jesus)

There may be no person on the globe who knows more about the story of Fatima than Sister Angela de Fatima Coelho. As a little girl growing up in Portugal, she used to pray at the tombs of Jacinta and Francisco Marto. Many years later, as a sister of the Alianca de Santa Maria, she would become the postulator for their cause of canonization. This journey would lead her to visit with Sister Lucia several times and eventually become the vice postulator for her cause as well.

Sister Angela brings this unique and privileged perspective to the story of Fatima, going beyond a chronicle of the events to the theological meaning of the Fatima message, as well as taking a deeper look at the lives and spiritualities of each of the three seers. Relying on her extensive research as a postulator for their causes and on her own personal story, touched early by suffering only to be healed by the embrace of Our Lady of Fatima, she helps listeners discover the relevancy of this message for our postmodern world.

For many years, Sister Angela has traveled the world and spoken to thousands of people. Now, she gives her profound testimony about Fatima. Her hope is that she may take each of us inside the light — the light that is God — that washed over the three shepherd children on that miraculous spring day in 1917.

Find a NEW READER for this wonderful book

I had started reading this very compelling book when my vacation travel plans had changed. Instead of flying, I now needed to drive to my friends parish in North Carolina, more than 17 hours away. I thought this would be a great way to occupy my time traveling by listening to this wonderful book during the drive. Well that's what I thought, at first, until I started listening. I was immediately stunned from what I hearing. I only kept with it (for nearly six hours) because of the subject matter, but I was shocked (and then slowly getting upset and distracted) by how poorly this was produced.

Shame on you TAN books. You're a very reputable Catholic Publishing company. How did you allow the amount of mispronunciations into this audio publication? The way you proof text for misspellings, someone should have caught these commonly spoken, but poorly pronounced words. In all fairness, it sounded like a "cold read" from a young adult seeing text she never read before, or never heard before, and never pronounced before, but still managed to pushed herself through the sentence to get to the end. Unbelievable. Performance was very choppy, having staccato pronunciation and diction, and very hard to listen to (or understand) at times.

TAN books, please re-publish this title with a new reader... Maybe someone who is familiar with the subject matter or religious terminology would be helpful, too. Thanks.

Inside the Light - Performance lacking.

Wonderful and insightful story.
The performance was lacking. There is a lot of splicing of the presentation. They needed a Catholic doing the reading and more importantly someone familiar with the Portuguese language.
Despite my disappointment with the performance, I would highly recommend this book. I plan on purchasing a hard copy of the book.

Terrible Narration

The narrator/publisher never gave this recording a single listening and it’s obvious. Within three minutes she fumbles over words and even repeats an entire partial sentence. I returned this audiobook for my credit back.
