Her new book, her first non-fiction work, tackles the silencing of Father Paul Mankowski, SJ by the Jesuit superiors who could not abide a practicing Catholic in their midst. Mankowski, who died suddenly of an aneurysm on September 3, 2020, was a scholar, philologist, confessor, and professor of Scripture. He was also a writer of immense talent: charm, force, and wit.
He was modern in the sense of addressing contemporary crises with Catholic truth, but also a true son of the Company of Jesus more in the mold of its founder, St. Ignatius of Loyola than the typical lavender-liberal Jesuits that dominate the landscape today.
He was also silenced and sidelined by his superiors for Wrong Think. And yet, he obeyed and persevered to a degree that must be called heroic. Hall’s very enjoyable book is not just a spiritual biography, but a window onto the chain-of-command dynamics of the post Vatican II Catholic Church, which have become even more severe under the current Argentine regime in Rome.
