No author biography available.
Translated by Sándor Tonelli
A novel likely written in the early 20th century. The book explores complex themes surrounding faith, doubt, and the challenges of a religious life, focusing on the character of a weary bishop faced with moral and existential dilemmas. It delves into the struggles between religious conviction and the pressing social issues of the time, making it appealing for readers interested in the interplay between spirituality and societal dynamics. The opening of the novel introduces readers to a tense and chaotic setting where a debate is underway, hinting at theological disputes likely linked to the early Christian church. It centers around the bishop, who is caught up in various discussions about the nature of the Trinity and other religious doctrines, reflecting his internal turmoil. As he navigates his responsibilities and the expectations placed upon him, the narrative reveals the bishop's fatigue and frustration with both his position and the broader societal conflicts around him. This sets up a layered exploration of his thoughts and observations as he grapples with his identity and the implications of his faith in a changing world.
