About the Book
Jim Farrell’s dystopian novel, The Last Priest in Brooklyn, follows in the footsteps of George Orwell’s 1984, Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, and Robert Hugh Blenson’s Lord of the World, in presenting a frightening future where Christianity is dying, and priests and nuns are in internment camps, disappeared, or in hiding. How Father Reynolds hated the use of disappeared as a transitive verb, both grammatically and in practice.
But there is always hope.
I am with you always until the end of time.
