Overview

For Heaven's Sake is a humorous, light-hearted depiction of Norfolk village life, centred around the village church of St Jude's in Forling Down. Centre stage is its larger than life rector, Father Cyril; his eccentric curate, Father Aubrey; and many other very idiosyncratic characters. The reader is very quickly drawn into the chain of disastrous situations and the author's first-hand knowledge of East Anglian life makes them all very believable. Many of the chapters are 'laughing out loud' amusing, so be prepared for a roller-coaster ride of village humour!
