Non-fiction account of a typical priest in a Boston diocese in the 1980's. There are two parts. The first part deals with the priest background and his life as a pastor. The second part deals with his cancer (multiple myeloma) and particularly his bone marrow transplant.

In my opinion, a honest portrayal.
