«Tutti santi me compreso» is a satirical essay on the lives of saints by Luciano De Crescenzo, published by Mondadori in hardback (164 pages, in Italian).
De Crescenzo reviews the lives of the saints with irony and lightness, stripping them of their devout aura to bring them closer to the reader. He mentions San Gennaro and the meaning of his miracle, Saint Augustine, to whom he attributes the invention of Purgatory, and Saint Thomas, whose lack of amorous experiences he highlights.
The work belongs to the collection «I libri di Luciano De Crescenzo» and originally appeared in 2011.
For readers who want to approach the lives of the saints without solemnity, with De Crescenzo's characteristic ironic tone.
