| Riepilogo: | Andrew M. Greeley, a noted sociologist and Catholic priest, has also established a reputation as a writer of racy novels.

While there are some weaknesses to his approach, his emphasis on strong female characters and a sacralizing sexuality are ultimately a positive contribution to our culture's struggles with love, sex, and intimacy. |
