Je meurs de ne pas mourir

Five hundred years after her death, Saint Teresa of Ávila comes back to life. But, unlike the resurrected Jesus Christ, she discovers that she has no body in which to incarnate. And for good reason: her corpse was dismembered, turned into numerous relics, and scattered across the globe. As she sets out on a journey of self-discovery and finds herself confronted with the modern world, Teresa tries to understand why she has been sent back to Earth.

In this funny and irreverent story, author Paco Bezerra seeks to revive the subversive spirit of the Carmelite nun, imagining her wandering through contemporary Spain—navigating life on the fringes, discovering LSD, launching a stand-up comedy career, and experiencing new mystical revelations.
