There are a growing number of novels prepared to tell the story of
paedophilia within various church communities, not least the Catholic
Church. Few of them have needed to stray far from the grim facts. Andrew
O'Hagan's Be Near Me and John Boyne's The Long History of Loneliness
are just two examples. Both these books draw the line between good and
bad clergy. But they also have solid reason to call into question an
entire ecclesiastical culture. They are valuable books but they don't
make comfortable reading.
