A companion piece to Notes from an Exhibition, it features the same Cornwall location and some of the same characters.
An interesting structure, where Father Barnaby Johnson's chapters work backwards in time, while the rest of the narrative starts at the beginning and works forward.
Beautifully written, with the central questions seeming to be not only What makes a Good Man? but also What makes a Man Good.
I loved this book, and was sad and bereft when I finished it.
