Jean Mercier

Benjamin: the parishioners in charge of flower arrangements on the altars are gossiping and arguing with each other, someone has messed up the confessional, and a few believers have started a petition against him.

Some criticize him for being conservative and backward, while others accuse him of not being sufficiently committed to protecting traditional values. The bishop is dissatisfied, and he is frustrated... Why did he become a priest in the first place? For people who argue over flower vases or politics, but don't care about what is important in religion? He's had enough of everything! He decides to pack up and leave. His sudden disappearance has left his parishioners with a host of questions: Where is he? Has he gone off with a woman? Has he gone crazy? Has he died? The whole series of unexpected events that will follow will have a great impact on the lives of the characters in this book, as well as on those who pick it up... Because this is an unforgettable, humorous story about our parishioners, but even more so about all of us, a novel that will make you laugh and deeply touch you. Jean Mercier's excellent humorous novel When the Priest Boils Over was originally published in France, where it became a publishing phenomenon with a circulation of 50,000 copies and topped the readership charts for months.
