      About This Book

      In this classic Catholic novel, Bernanos movingly recounts the life of a young French country priest who grows to understand his provincial parish while learning spiritual humility himself. Awarded the Grand Prix for Literature by the Academie Française, The Diary of a Country Priest was adapted into an acclaimed film by Robert Bresson.
      "A book of the utmost sensitiveness and compassion… it is a work of deep, subtle and singularly encompassing art."—  New York Times Book Review
