Diogenese Unveiled - A Great Read


-

After seeing positive review I ordered a copy of Diogenes Unveiled: A Paul Mankowski, S.J., Collection.

I just finished it. What a great collection!

He had such incredible insights, and his writing style was a pleasure to read. I'm a sucker for short, well-written essays, and that they focus on Church and social issues was a plus.

He wrote a number of essays under the pseudonym "Diogenes" because they were satirical and critical in nature, and that might not go over well with his Jesuit superiors. Indeed, they eventually curtailed his efforts. Too bad: I would love to have heard some of his comments about Church issues  in recent years. 

I highly recommend this book.

Pax et bonum
