A Bitter Trial: Evelyn Waugh and John Carmel Cardinal Heenan on the Liturgical Changes

by Evelyn Waugh and Dom Alcuin Reid

Book Overview

Expanded Edition

English author Evelyn Waugh, most famous for his novel Brideshead Revisited, became a Roman Catholic in 1930. For the last decade of his life, however, Waugh experienced the changes being made to the Church's liturgy to be nothing short of "a bitter trial". In John Cardinal Heenan, Waugh found a sympathetic pastor and somewhat of a kindred spirit.
