Review: " He never questioned what he meant to do."

John was born the first boy after five girls.  His mother had always known he was destined to be a priest, and he accepted his fate.  Then one day he asks a girl to walk out with him.  "The sin burned up inside him and yet never burned out, as is the way with sin.".  Still he takes the ride to the seminary, though it felt "like a hearse."I found the short cameos of John, his family, and his friends to be lovely.  The story of the priest at war with himself is told in clean, sparse language.  The despair is conveyed without drama, but with depth.  I recommend this story.
