The protagonist, Francis Arden, is a young man who is torn between his loyalty to his family, his love for a young woman, and his desire to become a Jesuit priest. The novel explores the tensions between the Catholic Church and Protestantism, as well as the conflicts that arise within families when members have differing religious beliefs. The narrative is set against the backdrop of mid-19th century England, a time of great social and political upheaval.Steinmetz's writing style is engaging, with vivid descriptions of characters and settings that bring the story to life. He also delves into the psychological motivations of his characters, adding depth and complexity to the plot.Overall, A Jesuit In The Family: A Tale is a thought-provoking novel that explores the themes of faith, family, and identity in a compelling and nuanced way.
