| Summary: | "Meet young Digby Swank--a gay boy in a very Catholic world. This is his story--from his miraculous birth, his troubled childhood and his quest for popularity, all the way to his dream of becoming Pope and/or a beauty queen. Follow Digby through Cub Scouts, through his stint as an altar boy, a prankster, an outcast, a cross dresser, a vengeance seeker, a hell-bound sinner, and more. But it's not just Digby you'll meet on the journey! Say hello to Digby's overbearing relatives, a few bullying nuns, some eccentric neighbors, and oh, let's not forget the parish gossips of Running Falls, the small blue collar town in which Digby lives. Yes, meet Digby Swank. A boy searching for love, belonging, and maybe even a halo. Surely those devil horns will keep it propped up."--Page 4 of cover. |
