A novel by Joe Hennessy
Ever imagined what life would be like if Rome decided finally to give us a married Clergy? Mr Hennessy did, and the results are hilarious!
Set in Ireland, a local bishop decides that his diocese is going to be the
first to follow the Pope's mandate that priests should marry. But to his dismay,
there is no sudden rush to the jewellers by his clergy to buy wedding rings.
So one poor hapless curate is elected to perform this duty.
The whole matter is undertaken like any other order from the bishop, with
the parish priest and the second curate being as helpful and as sympathetic
as possible while the local ladies are eyed up. Reverend Mother hides her
'girls' from father's unwanted attentions, and the Bishop is like a father
awaiting the birth of his firstborn!
The trouble really begins when the bride's mother decides her son-in-law should
have a better job, and keeps pestering the Bishop on this matter! But like
all good yarns it ends well with an unusual twist.
A must read for all clerics. It will put you off marriage forever! Everyone
will love this gentle and humorous tale and I can thoroughly recommend it.
The book is currently out of print and the author is planning to reprint, so we are taking pre-orders. Not exactly Harry Potter, but great entertainment nonetheless, and well worth the jacket price of $12.99 or £9 sterling. We can also accept Euros on request.
