Though I was not educated by nuns, Jesuits were in charge of making sure my morals went along the Catholic paths, many of which started pouring through as I read this personal account of the author's years in grade school.It is unusual to find a story which exposes wrongs that make a person re-evaluate beliefs and take pertinent actions such as leaving the Church; instead, it does not send a message of revenge but of understanding.The author is able to compose wonderful graphic sentences: "...Electrons flock to pure gold like Jesuits to a good stake burning."I felt a bit embarrassed by the mention of "Noriega madness."  Of course, this stems from my being from the former dictator's country, Panama.Oh, yes.  I still cry out "St. Blaise!" whenever I get something stuck in my throat.This is a serious book written with a good undercurrent of humour in plain good English.
