The late Father Andrew Greeley wrote wonderful books about love and passion between a husband and wife.They are written to help us imagine how much more God loves us than we can guess. I loved this book as I have loved others in the series. Being part Irish Catholic myself, I enjoyed every quirk, idiom, and bit of lore. Highly recommended
