Sister Maria Philomena’s book reviews
Most of this book is a reworking (often word-for-word) of newspaper portion of The Prince and Betty. The paper Peaceful Moments is renamed Cozy Moments and the characters have been re-worked to include Mike and Psmith.
Monsignor Hugh Benson has made a huge contribution to English Literature with his novels, and I think that this is one of his best. In fact, the writing of this book was the final step in Benson's own conversion to Catholicism.
Saint Edmund Campion, the famous English Jesuit martyr, is a central figure in this book -- an inspiration to one of the main characters, as well as to every reader.
