Michael Harding publishes his cries

An extract from Michael Harding's 'Staring at Lakes' appeared in Saturday's Irish Times.

Had Michael remained a priest and written that book, what would his fellow priests and bishop say or comment?

And yet in so many ways the book is probably a handbook of the story of so many priests. Seldom a word about it.

Another facade or is it?
