About The Book
Description
Author
On a cloudy Friday in 1980 the pot smoking Bad Clergy are out for a big night in the dirty old Syndey town. Kelly Muldoon Mahone and Clancy (and two silent companions) - Catholic priests all - throw off their robes and embrace the contradictions of their theological guardianship.This maverick Australian novel is a literary burlesque of prose poetry and dialogue irreverently satirizing Catholic theology and the priesthood with reference to how the Church deals with pedophile priests. Set in Sydney in the late 1970s. A Google review - Bad Clergy stands alone and is a truly unique and original combination of storytelling word-mining imagination and occasional silliness. It is a wonderful study and send-up of the imagery culture and oft-absurd world of a Catholic. A cult book in waiting. - the author.Bad Clergy offers a jarring darkly humorous and fantastical taste of the bitter clash between convenient dogma and inconvenient reality. The second edition revised.Companion to the book - God in the Human Machine - a theobiography.
