Hadrian the Seventh
by Fr. Rolfe (1860-1913) British
Introduction by Alexander Theroux
One day George Arthur Rose, hack writer and minor priest, discovers that he has been picked to be Pope. He is hardly surprised and not in the least daunted. Hadrian is conceived in the image of his creator, Frederick Rolfe, whose aristocratic pretensions (he called himself Baron Corvo), religious obsession (he abbreviated his first name to Fr., giving the impression he was a priest), and self-aggrandizing sensibility have made him known as one of the great English eccentrics.
