"A vigorous tumble through the power plays of sex, politics, and 20th-century Catholicism. Smith’s tale of two men is crammed with painful humor, and the dangerous but all-too-catholic truth that godliness and filthiness share an earthly bed. To call this book irreverent is to miss the deeper strain. Redemption, if it's possible, emerges from the mud."
