Status Updates From Le ceneri di Angela

Dnf

“I wonder if this priest is asleep because he’s very quiet till he says, My child, I sit here. I hear the sins of the poor. I assign the penance. I bestow absolution. I should be on my knees washing their feet. Do you understand me, my child?
I tell him I do but I don’t.”

The author does a fantastic job writing very believably from the perspective of himself as a young child! Poor lil guy, I just want to hug him! 🥺
