Catholic Girl
by Elsie Johnstone
‘The Catholic Church is a misogynistic boys’ club run by pompous, egotistical, lazy old men, puffed up with self-importance, who have no idea how to relate to the real world.’
(Herald Sun, Melbourne, Australia, July 1, 2020. Melbourne woman on the institution’s secrecy dealing with her parish’s problem priest.)
Catholicism’s rocky road. One woman’s poetic journey.
