This book tells the story of Michael OBrien, one of the most popular Catholic novelists and painters of our times. It covers his life from his childhood in the Canadian Arctic to the crucial decision in 1976 to devote himself wholly to Christian sacred arts, followed by his inspiration to write fiction and his bestselling apocalyptic novel, Father Elijah. The story then continues to the present with explorations of OBriens other works.OBriens life is one of struggle against all odds to reestablish Christian culture in the materialist void created by the modern Western world. It is a timely reminder of hope in trials and sufferings, of endurance during marginalization and poverty. This is the first biography of OBrien, and it also provides an introduction to his novels, paintings, and essays.The author, Clemens Cavallin, was granted unrestricted access to Michael OBriens personal archive, including his diary from the late 1970s until the present day. By revealing sides of OBriens interior creative lifeincluding mystical experiences, spiritual battles, and illuminationshe has painted a portrait of a contemporary visual and literary artist whose inspiration arises from an intense fusion of imagination and active faith.
