The Bride of Christ
This heart-rending story begins in autumn 1995 when a man from Derry
city is hospitalized after an episode of manic-depressive illness.
The man who believes himself to be the second coming of Christ meets
Paddy, his doctor - a woman who he comes to define as his bride - in
this true story of love across one of life’s great divides
This book records how it happened from the very moment that their eyes
meet across a corridor of a psychiatric hospital. It tells the tale of
an unspoken and shameless love affair between these two young people,
who so obviously adore each other, but who tread awkwardly on a trail
where few dare go
Will Paddy free herself from the shackles of the “accepted norms” of
society, overcome the taboos and do what her heart asks her to do or
will she buckle under the pressure and walk away?
Sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction. Many will find it hard to
believe that a doctor would fall for a psychiatric patient, but the
truth may give hope to us all. But will it set us free? And will one
man’s love for his beloved bride change the world? |
