The Power and the Glory

The power and the glory readers - Graham Greene
The Power and the Glory by Graham Greene
In a poor, remote section of Southern Mexico, the paramilitary group, The Red Shirts, has taken control. God has been outlawed, and the priests have been systematically hunted down and killed. Now, the last priest is on the run. Too human for heroism and too humble for martyrdom, the nameless and worldly “whiskey priest” is nevertheless impelled toward his squalid Calvary by his own compassion for humanity and by the efforts of his pursuers.اضافة اعلان
