A Memoir of Seven Years in India and Nepal
First Place Award Writer's Digest, Gold Medal Award Independent Publishers
What happened to Brother Jim in India and Nepal? Why would someone, after nearly thirty years as a Catholic Brother, leave behind his chosen religious family, the Church, and Christianity itself?
After years as a math instructor in the American Midwest, Brother Jim and three companions are sent to India to establish a branch of their religious order there. Struggling with challenges from an uncooperative government, inept local bishops, and the vagaries of a complex culture, Brother Jim nevertheless discovers both the charm of the Indian subcontinent and what is important to his soul.
Walk the backstreets of Delhi and Kathmandu and the hallways of a religious house in this most unusual memoir set in the 80s.
From reader reviews:
"Riveting" "Light humor and deep wisdom" "A poignant and often amusing true adventure story" "Could not put it down" "A gifted storyteller" "A cinema-like realism" "Explodes with the tastes, sounds, smells of India" "A coming of age story for any age and any soul"
