| Resumo: | "I never imagined how much sexual assault on a child could destroy their adult life. I was shocked by the scandal of such crimes, especially when they are perpetrated by men of the Church. That was my view until one day suddenly it came back to me what a priest had done to me during my childhood. I had been locked in denial for almost forty years. Because I had complained and finally spoke, I thought I could heal, but everything fell apart. In the rubble of my history, came a nagging question: how could I have chosen to become a priest?" This is the blub from the French text of Prière, de ne pas abuser, a memoir by Jesuit Patrick C. Goujon about his recovered memory as an adult that he had been abused by a priest as a boy. The book is written in a very poetic French. It was published last year by Éditions du Seuil and has been reviewed very prominently in France, including in Le Monde, Le journal du Dimanche, La Croix, and L'est Republicain"-- |
