Opplysninger | Publisher description: "In this moving novel, a classic in its genre, Patricia Nell Warren grapples with the sensitive issue of religion and homosexual love—and brings the anguish her characters feel to life. Despite his red sports car and blond good looks, Father Tom Meeker is a rookie priest in a small, dying mining town, but a committed ordained Roman Catholic priest who has taken a vow of celibacy. Father Meeker has never met a gay man—or ever consciously thought about homosexuality—until tall, sensual and wild Vidal Stump, the town’s half-breed ex-con, walks into the grand old church and asks Father Meeker to hear his confession, to become his friend. Meeker has no idea that he is about to find himself falling in love with Vidal as he does his confession. Yet the beauty of Vidal and the beauty of his ideas forces the young priest to look deeply at his vocation…and at the gay world where he now knows his heart belongs."
