About this title

Synopsis

One day George Arthur Rose, hack writer and minor priest, discovers that he has been picked to be Pope. He is hardly surprised and not in the least daunted. "The previous English pontiff was Hadrian the Fourth," he declares. "The present English pontiff is Hadrian the Seventh. It pleases Us; and so, by Our own impulse, We command."Hadrian is conceived in the image of his creator, Fr. Rolfe, whose aristocratic pretensions (he called himself Baron Corvo), religious obsession, and anarchic and self-aggrandizing sensibility have made him known as one of the great English eccentrics. Fr. Rolfe endured a lifetime of indignities and disappointments. However, in the hilarious and touching pages of this, his finest novel, he triumphs.

Store Description

Antiquariaat Parnassos was founded in 1992. In 2002, sales via the Internet were started; since 2006 our books have also been offered via Abebooks. Antiquariaat offers a wide range, with special attention for the subjects of art and applied art, history, countries and peoples, shipping and (Dutch) topography. In addition to the Internet, Antiquariaat Parnassos sells at book markets and book fairs, too. Anyone visiting Amsterdam on a Friday can find us at the well known Book Market on the Spui. Ordered books are almost always shipped within one or two days with track and trace. We ship books all over the world. Our stock is larger than our offer on the Internet, so you can always ask whether we have a book you are looking for in stock, if it is not listed in our offer on the Internet.
