The Greater Love

A NOVEL LOOSELY BASED ON THE DESERT FATHERS. The Abba, Father Joseph, is a strong, fervent, young man who has spent seven long years living as a solitary monk in his cave. He has battled all the urges known to man and had become settled in his austere life. When, without realising it, he had become so used to the life he had virtually forgotten any other, he is thrust into the confusing state of being forced to cope with a completely unexpected human being. This time, one who is also very demanding ... as he is totally helpless.
