Where No Storms Come by John F Deane

Where No Storms Come by John F Deane

Where No Storms Come follows the lives of Patrick Brennan and Dorothy Lohan. Destined for the religious life - the convent for Dorothy; the priesthood for Patrick - and from different social backgrounds, they form an unlikely and edgy friendship. The novel follows the parallel trajectories of their lives through childhood, adolescence and into adulthood, charting their struggles with the spiritual paths they have chosen until they at last choose a life together. A powerful, beautiful and thought-provoking novel about faith and doubt and individual freedom.
