A Saint and a Sinner in an Umbrian Convent Mark Bradomin is an
aging Don Juan, a professor of Spanish literature fired for
seducing students. His career ruined, he takes a job teaching
English in Italy and ends up living as a night watchman in an
abandoned Franciscan friary, where he continues his philandering --
until he discovers that the building is inhabited by the spirit of
St. Francis of Assisi. Saints don't need redemption; sinners do,
and some saints are less judgmental than others. Mark and Francis
become friends and confidants. But Mark's redemption comes from
elsewhere. He falls in love with Victoria, a beautiful Mexican
woman on a self-imposed exile of her own, and when she refuses his
attentions, he decides to become a Franciscan friar, much to the
disapproval of Francis. Another Monk's Tale is an irreverant romp
across three cultures, a tale of sex and religion, and other things
that are not supposed to be discussed in polite conversation.
