Hadrian the Seventh (New York Review Books Classics)
Make that Pope Hadrian the Seventh. Rolfe offers up a British  pontiff who wants to redesign the crucifix, redecorate the  Vatican, and canonize capriciously. Hadrian is a  little-disguised version of Rolfe, one of English literature's  great eccentrics. This was originally published in the early  1900s.Copyright 2001 Reed Business Information, Inc.
