Ecce Homo: The Final Confession of Father Griffin

Quinn Griffin’s final confession to his former spiritual advisor is the story of his entire life, a life he had kept hidden from almost everyone. So close to death, Quinn fears that he may have misunderstood God’s intention for his life. His overwhelming desire to be a Catholic priest had come with many problems, not the least of which was gender. Quinn was born female. With the help of her father, who himself had always wanted to be a priest, she went through appropriate actions to change sex. Throughout his medical, academic, and spiritual journey, which took him from the lush Irish seaside to the beautiful American mountains, few people knew of his secret. Only a handful of doctors were privy to the information. And now, as he tells the story of his life, what is revealed can only be described as a dream curtailed by an ironic and sad twist of fate.
