Ceremony of Innocence

Fiction

“McLean opens a disturbing window into a parallel world where twenty-first century Catholics walk the line between the ceremony and the reality of innocence. Amidst hedonism, Neo-Nazism, banal leftism and militant Islam lurk murder and treachery with only the merest hint of redemption. Bewildering and exhilarating by turns.”

Now and at the Hour of Our Death

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Twin perils await us at the end of life in our callous neo-pagan world: the pressure to usurp God’s prerogative of determining the moment of death and the pressure to subject oneself to disproportionate and extraordinary treatment. Nikas and Green provide a much-needed map—well drawn and clearly labelled—for the wary traveler, freeing him to focus on his proper business of dying in the grace of God.”
