Monsignor Quixote by Graham Greene

Graham Greene (1904–1991) is considered one of the most significant novelists of the twentieth century. His spiritual journey took him from agnosticism to a conversion to Catholicism. After his conversion, he continued to grapple with the theological questions that bombarded him. In Monsignor Quixote, we find a Catholic priest, assailed with doubts, embarked on a road trip with his best friend, an atheist Communist. This entertaining and subtly instructive story is deeply theological. I highly recommend it.

Belief in Monsignor Quixote is cold and still. But doubt—and there is no affable agnosticism anywhere in Greene—unfolds on a vital road of pilgrimage. For Quixote and Sancho, it provided a place of pursuit, escape, despair, shame, constant change, courage, adventure, joy, generous moments and foolish ones, intellectual debate, sometimes fresh wisdom, and almost always amiable wine.
