hated this book if im being completely honest, only read it as part of my course for uni, I found it really hard to follow as not many names were mentioned, and even though death was a main theme of the book I felt no emotional connection to any of the characters.

Read this for a subject that I did not take years ago, and now that I have it for the second time, I have to admit I was moved to prayer. It speaks of brokenness, but even in the deep and dark bowels of helplessness, salvation is still present.

I won't (and I don't have the right to) give the details of the story, but this is a must-read for priests all over the world.
