1954. Hardback. Good. Original Edition First Edition by Gilbert Cesbron Printing Location: Doubleday Garden City, New York Date: 1954 Size and Page Count: 5.25 X 8 Tall 312 pages Condition: Good, Ex Library stamps, no jacket, some wear and soiling Gray cloth hardbound Translated from the French by John Russell Les Saints vont en enfer ( Saints go to Hell ) Powerful and moving novel story of dedicated and indestructible faith in its day to day demonstration and application by Pierre, a worker-priest. His first awareness of human agony during a vigil at the mine where his father worked directs him toward the selfless course he is to follow, and it is in Sagny, in a slum section of absolute destitution and dereliction, that he carries on his work. Father Bernard, before him, weakens under the stress of suffering and gives up the Mission- but Pierre, whose spirit- and flesh-never fail him, finds a further impetus to his faith.
