'HOW I MET FATHER JOE: I WAS FOURTEEN AND HAVING AN AFFAIR WITH A MARRIED WOMAN...'So begins Tony Hendra's extraordinary and inspiring true story of finding faith, friendship and family through the decades-long influence of a surpassingly wise Benedictine monk, Father Joseph Warrilow, living on the Isle of Wight.Over 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.When I read passages to my wife and my voice began to give way she said, "Keep going, keep going." I really didn't need much urging. I could easily have read the whole book in one sitting, but it's too rich, too powerful Like me, you might cherish this book so much you'll keep it on the shelf beside Saint Augustine....FRANK MCCOURT, author of Angela's Ashes
