A heartfelt, daring, divinely hilarious debut novel about a priest who embarks on a fateful journey with a pistol in his pocket and an injured coyote in his backseat.
"A beautiful and meditative exploration of shattered faith."ย โBrit Bennett, author ofย The Vanishing Half
Father Dan is homeless. Dismissed by his conservative diocese for eccentricity and insubordination, heโs made his exile into a kind of pilgrimage, transforming his Toyota Camry into a mobile monkโs cell. Like the ascetic religious philosophers he idolizes, he intends to spend his trip in peaceful contemplation. But then he sees a minivan sideswipe a coyote. Unable to suppress his Franciscan impulses, he takes the wild animal in, wrapping its broken leg with an old T-shirt and feeding it Spam with a plastic spoon.
With his unexpected canine companion in the backseat, Dan makes his way west, encountering other offbeat travelers and stopping to take in the occasional roadside novelty (MARTINโS HOLE TO HELL, WORLD-FAMOUS BOTTOMLESS PIT NEXT EXIT!). But the coyote is far from the only oddity fate has delivered into this churchless priestโs care: it has also given him a bone-handled pistol, a box of bullets, and a letter from his estranged friend Paulโa summons of sorts, pulling him forward.
By the time Dan gets to where heโs going, heโll be forced to reckon once and for all with the great mistakes of his past, and he will have to decide: is penance better paid with revenge, or with redemption?
โHornsbyโs ruminative and God-haunted road trip novel is a hidden gem from this dementedly off-kilter year.โย
