With the ever-widening gap between tradition and modernism having stretched now to breaking point, Fr. Houghton's novel proves, if anything, more germane, more humorous, and more thought-provoking than when it first appeared in 1979.

Autorenporträt
BRYAN HOUGHTON (1911-1992), of Anglican background, was received into the Catholic Church in Paris in 1934 and ordained a priest on March 30, 1940. Throughout the 1960s he found himself increasingly at odds with the self-styled "reformers" who, in the name of Vatican II, were wreaking havoc in the Church. On the day the Novus Ordo Missae went into effect-November 30, 1969, the first Sunday of Advent-he resigned from his pastorship at Bury St Edmunds, refusing to celebrate with the new missal. Drawing on his inheritance, he purchased a property with a chapel in the region of Viviers in the south of France and, with his bishop's consent, continued to offer the Tridentine Mass for a small congregation until his death on November 19, 1992. He wrote two novels, Mitre and Crook and Judith's Marriage, a collection of essays, Unwanted Priest, and a children's book, Saint Edmund, King and Martyr.
