About the Book

A young priest's life spirals out of control when long-submerged memories of childhood abuse begin to surface. He seeks solace in a friendship with a beautiful seventeen-year-old-choir girl but this leads to a frenzied love affair that ends in disaster. Fallen Men touches on some dark themes but it is ultimately a novel of redemption. Fallen Men has been the recipient of two literary awards - Top Medallist Honours in the General Fiction category of the prestigious New Apple 2015 Awards for Excellence, and the IDB Amazon Award in 2013.

Review :
No doubt this book will get placed in Christian/ Religious fiction, but it offers much more to just a general reader. We all face dilemmas from time to time, and here those problems are faced by Catholic priests. What the author has done here is used two examples of what a priest may come up against. Thus ultimately one priest faces temptation, and another compassion. The story revolves around what happens in both cases, what others try to do, or not to do, and the consequences of all these actions and in-actions. This is a gripping read and I must thank the lady on this site for pointing this book out (sorry, I have forgot your name). Whether you are of a religious bent, or an atheist such as myself this book offers a lot to ponder upon and even discuss. Sensitive subjects are discussed in this novel but the author uses sensitiveness in dealing with these instead of sensationalism, giving a more real approach to the story. Also the story itself is spiritual to a degree, with the idea of innocence, sin and redemption playing a large part to the structure. If you want to read something that will draw you in and give you something to think about then this may be what you are looking for. --- This book touches on a breath of subjects pertinent to the present day Catholic Church. Each subject is well researched and the Author is not afraid to deal with each matter in an honest and thorough manner. It gives an interesting view of the life of a Priest. It is clear the Author understands the teachings of the Catholic Church. The Author has dealt with the issue of abuse in a sensitive way. The three Priests invoke the reader to feel a range of emotions -anger, sadness and at times disbelief that someone could be that naive. It is a book that you will want to read in one sitting, I loved that it didn't end as you would expect, I enjoyed the twists. A well written novel that stays with you and make you think. Good book to select for a Book Club! --- Fallen Men is a deep, thought-provoking novel written about--and from--the heart. The story gripped my emotions, involving me in the characters' issues. --- Brian O'Hare's novel was gripping from the first few pages and so well written, with balance and tactful insight, that I was able to retain my respect for another person's religious beliefs while entering the curious world of Irish Catholicism. --- I loved this book! Brian O'Hare weaves a tale that will touch your heart and stir your compassion--and your anger! I related to each of the characters-even though I am not Catholic and I do not have a deep understanding of the priesthood. I was driven to discuss and analyze each section I read with my husband. He is now reading it! The message I took away was that we are all broken. We may judge others for what we see as their sin, but none of us are perfect. This is a story of heart and redemption. I highly recommend Fallen Men!
