Between the Lines: A Literary Deep Dive
Beyond the Back of Beyond Belief: Navigating Post-Conciliar Chaos
13 Mar 2025
Welcome to a podcast deep dive into Brian Moore's prescient 1972 novel, Catholics. Set on the storm-swept island of Muck Abbey, we examine the tensions between a community of monks fiercely clinging to the Latin Mass and the reforms of a fictional Vatican IV, which has embraced secularism and ecumenical dialogue. Each episode will unpack the key players, including the conflicted Abbot Tomás, the modernizing Father Kinsella, and the passionate Father Manus. We'll explore the novel's rich themes of faith, obedience, tradition, and the enduring power of ritual in a world moving towards change. Discover why this short novel continues to resonate with readers today.
