Clerical Errors John Fearn

Clerical Errors is a vivid and evocative novel account of one man 's life over more than fifty years,nearly forty of them in the ministry of the Church of England. It covers,with wry humour and sympathetic self-awareness,both spiritual and personal experiences in the life of a parish priest,offering considerable insight into the practicalities of running an Anglican parish in the twentieth century,and the state of health of the Church itself. Given the diversity (and historic nature)of the topics covered, Clerical Errors will have an obvious appeal to all those with an interest in the inner workings of the Church of England at parish level,as well as for past and existing members of the parishes described. Overall, Clerical Errors is an enjoyable,accessible book with a human touch that will give readers the sense that they are being told a personal history,rather than reading it at arms length.
