Summary, etc. The Power and the Glory is a powerful and haunting novel set in 1930s Mexico during a time when the government was harshly persecuting the Catholic Church. The story follows a nameless, alcoholic priest—often referred to as the "whisky priest"—who is on the run as the last remaining clergyman in a rural state where religion has been outlawed.<br/><br/>Despite his personal flaws, including drinking and fathering a child, the priest continues to risk his life to perform secret masses and provide spiritual support to the poor and faithful. As he journeys from village to village, he faces betrayal, loneliness, and the constant threat of capture by a relentless lieutenant who believes eliminating the Church will bring justice and order.<br/><br/>The novel explores themes of faith, redemption, guilt, and the contrast between human weakness and spiritual strength. Greene presents a deeply flawed but ultimately heroic character who embodies the idea that grace can still exist in broken people.<br/><br/>
