Synopsis (credit: www.amazon.co.uk)
During a vicious persecution of the clergy in Mexico, a worldly priest, the 'whisky priest', is on the run. With the police closing in, his routes of escape are being shut off, his chances getting fewer. But compassion and humanity force him along the road to his destiny, reluctant to abandon those who need him, and those he cares for.
On the 1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die List.
(Bought second-hand at the CAFDA Charity Bookshop, Warwick Street, Claremont.)
Not one of Graham Greene's best books, as far as I'm concerned. I'm glad I read it, but I found it a bit aimless at times. It would not have made my personal list of 1001 books to be read before one dies.
