(1974)
A novel by

 
 
A cynical, American journalist is tasked with interviewing an elderly priest named Father Felix who refuses to leave his mission, which is caught in the path of opposing armies during the Blemi Civil War in Africa. As Weathers makes his way to the mission, he learns more and more about this stubborn priest. When he finally arrives at the mission, his lack of faith in humanity is challenged.

From the author of The Mouse that Roared.

"There is one conversation between the main character and a spy that makes the book amazing. Even though the book is a quick read it still manages to achieve tones of the Old Man and the Sea. The priest is the main characters desperate and defining catch. Little jewel that aged well."--Amazon Review
