Product Information

Winner of The 1963 National Book Award for Fiction. The hero of J.F. Powers's comic masterpiece is Father Urban, a man of the cloth who is also a man of the world. Charming, with an expansive vision of the spiritual life and a high tolerance for moral ambiguity, Urban enjoys a national reputation as a speaker on the religious circuit and has big plans for the future. But then the provincial head of his dowdy religious order banishes him to a retreat house in the Minnesota hinterlands. Father Urban soon bounces back, carrying God's word with undaunted enthusiasm through the golf courses, fishing lodges, and backyard barbecues of his new turf. Yet even as he triumphs his tribulations mount, and in the end his greatest success proves a setback from which he cannot recover. First published in 1962, Morte D'Urban has been praised by writers as various as Gore Vidal, William Gass, Mary Gordon, and Philip Roth. This beautifully observed, often hilarious tale of a most unlikely Knight of Faith is among the finest achievements of an author whose singular vision assures him a permanent place in American literature.

Reviews
"Superbly comic" -- Nancy Pearl,  Book Lust "Each sentence tends to be an event; yet every event, like every firm but fluent sentence, is an open door into the next half--expected, half--shocking encounter.... Morte D'Urban is [J.F. Powers's] supreme fiction." -- F.W. Dupee "...[Powers's] priests were creatures of a vivid, sympathetic, and unerring imagination...." -- Andrew Greeley,  Commonweal, "Superbly comic" - Nancy Pearl, Book Lust "Each sentence tends to be an event; yet every event, like every firm but fluent sentence, is an open door into the next half-expected, half-shocking encounter…. Morte D'Urban is [J.F. Powers's] supreme fiction." - F.W. Dupee "…[Powers's] priests were creatures of a vivid, sympathetic, and unerring imagination…." - Andrew Greeley, Commonweal, " D'Urban is a gem--a supremely funny tale about Father Urban, a Midwestern priest who believes in golf, baseball, scotch, and the Roman Catholic Church, perhaps in that order. Fr. Urban's struggles with the management of a parish are rendered with a comic's timing, and Powers's prose and dialogue are as sharp as anything in Flannery O'Connor. Is anyone as funny today? Maybe David Gates; maybe Tom Drury." -- Publishers Weekly "Superbly comic" -- Nancy Pearl,  Book Lust "Each sentence tends to be an event; yet every event, like every firm but fluent sentence, is an open door into the next half--expected, half--shocking encounter.... Morte D'Urban is [J.F. Powers's] supreme fiction." -- F.W. Dupee "...[Powers's] priests were creatures of a vivid, sympathetic, and unerring imagination...." -- Andrew Greeley,  Commonweal
