Review: The Temple of Gold

The Temple of Gold The Temple of Gold by William Goldman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

While this novel is not an autobiography, one feels it is a psychologically valid memoir if not a factual life history for Goldman. Growing up awkwardly and having trouble navigating traumas, setbacks and love life the hero never really finds "the handle" and that is something we can all relate to.

Review: Helmet and Sword, Part One

Helmet and Sword, Part One Helmet and Sword, Part One by Father Charles E. Coughlin
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

This post-Vatican II collection of lectures by Rev. Coughlin covers topics in Catholicism mostly around The Pill and contraception. Coughlin, with his typically direct attacks, names bishops and takes on the entire bishop layer of Catholic administration as ineffectual and pandering to leftist laic elements. Coughlin felt what Pope Paul says goes, the Bishops should rule with certainty and force and use of contraception is the gateway to anarchy.
