The Power and the Glory

Greene's masterpiece of a "whiskey priest" on the run



In a poor, remote section of southern Mexico, the Red Shirts have taken control. God has been outlawed, and the priests have been systematically hunted down and killed. Now, the last priest strives to overcome physical and moral cowardice in order to find redemption. “Brilliant . . . a splendid achievement.” —The Atlantic Monthly
