Gentle Jesuit

Philip Caraman, SJ 1911–1998

New Hardback Illustrated

Postscript summary

Named ‘dear gentle Jesuit’ by Evelyn Waugh, Father Philip Caraman was a prolific author and cultural leader as well as spiritual figure, but never made more than notes for an autobiography. June Rockett draws on his papers and letters to present an account of his life, from his Armenian heritage and education at Stonyhurst in Lancashire to his revamping of The Month periodical and publication of Tibet in 1997. Slightly off-mint.
