Ürün Detayları
- A key comic writer of the past three decades has created his most heartfelt and hard-hitting book. Father Joe is Tony Hendra’s inspiring true story of finding faith, friendship, and family through the decades-long influence of a surpassingly wise Benedictine monk named Father Joseph Warrillow.Like everything human, it started with sex. In 1955, fourteen-year-old Tony found himself entangled with a married Catholic woman. In Cold War England, where Catholicism was the subject of news stories and Graham Greene bestsellers, Tony was whisked off by the woman’s husband to see a priest and be saved.Yet what he found was a far cry from the priests he’d known at Catholic school, where boys were beaten with belts or set upon by dogs. Instead, he met Father Joe, a gentle, stammering, ungainly Benedictine who never used the words “wrong” or “guilt,” who believed that God was in everyone and that “the only sin was selfishness.” During the next forty years, as his life and career drastically ebbed and flowed, Tony discovered that his visits to Father Joe remained the one constant in his life—the relationship that, in the most serious sense, saved it.From the fifties and his adolescent desire to join an abbey himself; to the sixties, when attending Cambridge and seeing the satire of Beyond the Fringe convinced him to change the world with laughter, not prayer; to the seventies and successful stints as an original editor of National Lampoon and a writer of Lemmings, the off-Broadway smash that introduced John Belushi and Chevy Chase; to professional disaster after co-creating the legendary English series Spitting Image; from drinking to drugs, from a failed first marriage to a successful second and the miracle of parenthood—the years only deepened Tony’s need for the wisdom of his other and more real father, creating a bond that could not be broken, even by death.A startling departure for this acclaimed satirist, Father Joe is a sincere account of how Tony Hendra learned to love. It’s the story of a whole generation looking for a way back from mockery and irony, looking for its own Father Joe, and a testament to one of the most charismatic mentors in modern literature.

Religious Editorial Review
**** "Father Joe" by Tony Hendra is both a nuanced exploration and a humorous biography that will resonate with readers from various religious backgrounds, especially those who feel disillusioned by dogma. The titular character, Father Joe, emerges as a pivotal figure whose presence brings a blend of humanity and spirituality, making the narrative both relatable and engaging. Hendra's unique storytelling weaves together his own experiences and the complexities of religious life, emphasizing that personal belief can exist beyond established institutions. The book shines a light on Father Joe’s ability to connect divine truths with human experiences. Hendra contrasts the rigidities often found in traditional religious teachings with the warmth and grace that Father Joe embodies. This juxtaposition not only offers a satirical perspective on religious practices but also invites readers to reflect on the essence of faith. Hendra's sharp wit, reminiscent of Monty Python, enriches the narrative, providing both humor and insight. Furthermore, the work emphasizes the idea that truth transcends denominations, advocating that the essence of spirituality can be grasped in its pure form, regardless of the organizational framework that may obscure it. By sharing his personal struggles and the life lessons learned from Father Joe, Hendra encourages readers to seek a relationship with the divine without getting lost in doctrinal disputes. "Father Joe" is a compelling reminder that humanity’s imperfections are not barriers to experiencing faith, but rather, they can deepen our understanding of grace and forgiveness. Overall, readers looking for a heartfelt, honest, and humorous take on the intersection of religion and humanity will find "Father Joe" an immensely rewarding read, bridging gaps between belief systems while inviting a broader exploration of the divine. **
