The Long Yearning’s End: Stories of Sacrament and Incarnation

Award-winning author Patrick Hannon returns in his third collection of stories and memoirs, The Long Yearning’s End. Hannon strongly believes that, to quote Patrick Kavanagh, God is in the bits and pieces of Everyday. In his latest book he explores our connection to the divine through the lens of the seven sacraments of the Catholic Church: baptism, reconciliation, Eucharist, confirmation, holy matrimony, holy orders, and anointing of the sick. In the end, he proves that God can be tasted and touched and seen and heard and smelled every day of our lives.
