This fast-moving and vividly illustrated narrative is set against the life of the Jesuit scientist and cosmologist, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, who inspired much of the New Age Movement in the 60s and 70s, and whose concepts drive many thinkers today. Sparked by favorable remarks made by Pope Benedict in 2009, Teilhard's ideas go viral. In a world beset by wars, economic crises, and hopelessness, Teilhard's vision sweeps the Christian world - Europe and the Americas. Recalling Teilhard's historical skirmishes with Rome, the Vatican panics, and the Roman Curia persuade a faltering Pope to authorize a modern heresy trial as the only way of stamping out the infection. The trial proceeds with flashbacks to Telhard's extraordinary life. We see his discovery of science and the mystical impact of years spent in the midst of the horrors of the First World War. Two lively Jesuits, one Mexican and one Irish, defend him with wit. The drama concludes with a twist that presages the election of Pope Francis and realizes a triumph denied to Telhard throughout his life.
