Salvation Of A Serial Celibate: A True Story

Greg McAllister's Salvation of a Serial Celibate is an Irish Catholic hero's journey, marked by the three mysteries of the rosary he recited faithfully as a child. As a young man, he enters the secreted, all-boys world of a Catholic seminary, but after nine years, crosses his fingers during the oath of celibacy and bolts from seminary and church. Moving into San Francisco's burgeoning Haight Ashbury, he blunders into an unexpected pregnancy, a devastating heartbreak, and a life-threatening LSD trip, eventually waking up naked and sore in a padded cell, accused of assaulting a police officer and attempted murder. This is a raw spiritual odyssey, told with refreshing honesty, deep feeling, and mischievous humor; an emotional, and philosophical roller coaster ride down the naive idealism of the '50s, into the jarring chaos, disillusionment, and rebellion of the '60s." 9781484158050 1484158059 318 Biography & Autobiography NOT_MATURE http://books.google.com/books/content?id=N6VGoAEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&source=gbs_api en
