A Reading from: The Edge of Sadness, by Edwin O'Connor
Listen now
Description
Edwin O'Connor's Pulitzer prize winning novel The Edge of Sadness is a penetrating look into the soul of a vibrant and humbly profound spiritual existence that has been neglected in modern fiction. It records the rituals, governance, and congregational personality of the Roman Catholic Church in the United States that scarcely ten years later will have almost completely disappeared.
