When your parish priest dons stone-washed jeans, suggesting that his priestly role holds no particular significance, what is happening? Alice Thomas Ellis, as self-described 'gifted and comprehensive worrier,' has much to say about the present state of the Catholic Church and makes it her business to find out... Encounters with New Ageists, the Charismatic Renewal Movement, the question of sexuality and that of new-style, politically committed nuns in Marks & Spencer civvies are all handled with conviction and immense wit... The mother of 7 children, Alice Thomas Ellis has a distinguished career as a novelist and journalist. In this, her first full-length work of non-fiction, her provocative and idiosyncratic view of life will outrage, amuse, entertain and challenge readers.
