Publisher's Synopsis
There's a specter floating above the pews at afternoon mass. Father Montgovery has no idea why the ghostly presence has followed him around for years, but when a longtime parishioner asks for help in getting his drug-addicted daughter clean, Father Montgovery must do his best to ignore the phantom and shift his focus to the physical and sometimes harrowing world.
Written by esteemed author and former Ploughshares guest editor Robert Boswell, The Soul in Paraphrase explores sin, redemption, and the complexities of the human soul.
Ploughshares, the literary magazine of Emerson College.
