Can a 15-second "incident" that happened to an 11-year-old altar boy in his parent's bedroom a half-century ago forever change the course of his life and the trusting relationship he had with his _two_ fathers: his biological one and the beloved parish priest who sexually molested him? In "My Fathers: Letters of Healing on a Quest for the Truth," Len Prazych shares his story in a series of intimate letters to his recently deceased father, while trying to learn what _really _happened on a sweltering August night in 1971 in Bayonne, NJ. Unlike salacious tales and tabloid headlines that describe multiple incidents of horrific sexual abuse at the hands of priests who preyed upon unsuspecting altar boys and other vulnerable children over years or decades, "My Fathers" is a story healing told by "one who got away," and his 50-year quest to learn the truth about his perhaps not-so-pious father and his predatory priest. Clearly and respectfully written, this profanity-free and poignant story will strike a very personal chord with survivors of abuse, their parents or guardians and anyone else impacted by the behavior of priests and their protector, the Catholic Church.
