A Lost Tribe by William King
A Lost Tribe is a novel that charts the role of the priest in Ireland, from his exalted position to one of an endangered species.
• ‘An emphatic and delicate exploration of faith, hope and loneliness … throwing a new light onto unspoken experiences’ – John MacKenna • ‘Lively, engaging characters populate this novel … King skilfully succeeds in presenting a more personal, human face to a previously untouchable, deific figure.’ – Seán Hayes, Sunday Independent • ‘This is a wonderful book, rich in wisdom, beautifully written, highly entertaining and often laugh-out-loud funny … It has some wise and compelling things to say about why we are where we are and how we are.’ – Western People
King skilfully succeeds in presenting a more personal, human face to a previously untouchable, deific figure; whether or not, however, the reading public is ready to welcome back this lost tribe with open arms remains to be seen. -- Sean Hayes * Irish Independent *
