The Rebel Angels by Robertson Davies
A goodhearted priest and scholar, a professor with a passion for the darker side of medieval psychology, a defrocked monk, and a rich young businessman who inherits some troublesome paintings are all helplessly beguiled by the same coed. The story is set in motion by the death of art collector Francis Cornish, and Robertson Davies weaves together the destinies of this remarkable cast of characters in smooth, lyrical prose, creating a wise and witty portrait of love, murder, and scholarship at a modern university.Robertson Davies was born in the little town of Thamesville, Ontario, in the year 1913. He attended Queen's University's Upper Canada College and Oxford's Balliol College. He was a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, an Honourary Fellow of Balliol College, a Member of the Order of Ontario, and a Companion of the Order of Canada, as well as the first Canadian member of the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters.
