About this listen

In a poor Mexican state in the 1930s, the Red Shirts have viciously persecuted the clergy and murdered many priests. Yet one remains - the ‘whisky priest’ who believes he's lost his soul. On the run and with the police closing in, his routes of escape are being shut off, his chances getting fewer. But compassion and humanity force him along the road to his destiny…

Andrew Sachs reads Graham Greene’s powerful novel about a worldly Roman Catholic priest and his quest for penitence and dignity.

novel idea, dull execution

While the narration was engaging enough to make it a casually good listening experience, i found both the character development and the plot progression quite dull. An outline of the content would seem promising, but the story components were dissapointing.
