Description

Best-selling author Joseph Girzone brings us a new hero for our time: Carlo Brunini. An accomplished young Italian bishop, Carlo chooses to become a homeless beggar so he can understand why Jesus so loved the poor. What happens next will astonish and delight readers everywhere.

When Carlo returns to his diocese in Italy he starts to build homes for the homeless. He adopts seven homeless children, asking his beloved cousin, Madalena, to be their mother, and turns a cold and empty mansion into a place of life and laughter. But Carlo, not of his own choice, becomes homeless once more: he is sent on a sensitive diplomatic mission to Iran.

As Carlo engages the powerful rulers of Iran, he suffers a devastating loss that comes to serve as a bridge between two worlds and the beginning of an even more extraordinary adventure for the homeless bishop.

Girzone's latest novel is a "what if" book that readers will not be able to put down. Like the beloved Joshua, Carlo is destined to be cherished for decades to come.

High hopes, low results

I’ve really enjoyed the authors’ other works, like the Joshua series. I was hoping this book would be similar—and indeed the premise and concept follows similar lines, in its gentle critique of church structures. However, the story just became too simple and predictable, and felt like it was dragging on without much intrigue or excitement. It started well, with real conflicts and questions. But in the middle, it became quite the banal tale, mainly due to the fact that it was over simplified and optimistic, everything was explained away and somehow every detail always worked out “just so”, to the betterment of everyone. It was honestly not very believable. I also soon grew weary of the narrator’s contrived Italian accent, and because of these factors, I unfortunately could not finish through to the end.
