About This Book

A parish clergyman, shaken by a confrontational encounter with human misery, turns to a veteran social worker and a compassionate neighbor for guidance and support. The narrative moves between intimate scenes of urban domestic life and conversations that interrogate whether individual vice or social conditions are chiefly to blame, and whether rehabilitation is a personal or communal task. Practical measures such as temporary shelter, savings accounts, and informal oversight are shown alongside debates about the limits of charity and the challenge of aligning religious conviction with modern social reform.
