Krátky popis
Odran Yates enters Clonliffe Seminary in 1972 after his mother
informs him that he has a vocation to the priesthood. He goes in
full of ambition and hope, dedicated to his studies and keen to
make friends. Forty years later, Odran's devotion has been
challenged by the revelations that have shattered the Irish
people's faith in the church. He has seen friends stand trial,
colleagues jailed, the lives of young parishioners destroyed and
has become nervous of venturing out in public for fear of
disapproving stares and insulting remarks. But when a family
tragedy opens wounds from his past, he is forced to confront the
demons that have raged within a once respected institution and
recognise his own complicity in their propagation. It has taken
John Boyne fifteen years and twelve novels to write about his home
country of Ireland but he has done so now in his most powerful
novel to date, a novel about blind dogma and moral courage, and
about the dark places where the two can meet. At once courageous
and intensely personal, A History of Loneliness confirms Boyne as
one of the most searching chroniclers of his generation.
