Prison Journal Volume 3: The High Court Frees an Innocent Man
Prison Journal Volume 3: The High Court Frees an Innocent Man by George Cardinal Pell ( Ignatius Press 2021:£16.50). This final volume of the trial, sentencing and imprisonment, of Australia’s highest ranking churchman, is a moving tribute to the depth of spirituality and his Christian faith that enabled the cardinal to survive and emerge stronger from his ordeal to a deeper living out of his vocation of following Christ through the tribulations as well as the triumphs of life. This book provides a window into the soul of a man enduring the crucible of imprisonment. What is nothing short of astonishing is what we come to see through that window: not bitterness, anger, and fear, but rather equanimity, graciousness, calmness of spirit and forgiveness towards his enemies-Robert Barron, Auxiliary Bishop of Los Angeles.
