«Diario de un cura rural» is the novel by Georges Bernanos, published by Orbis in paperback (228 pages, in Spanish).
The novel is written as the personal diary of a young priest assigned to a parish in rural France. His entries show the daily life of the ministry, his encounters with parishioners, and the inner struggle of a man who sustains his faith between doubt and devotion.
The 1984 edition, published by Orbis, includes a foreword by André Malraux.
Louis Émile Clément Georges Bernanos was a French author, and a soldier in World War I. A Catholic with monarchist leanings, he was critical of elitist thought and was opposed to what he identified as defeatism. He believed this had led to France's defeat and eventual occupation by Germany in 1940 during World War II. His two best-known novels Sous le soleil de Satan (1926) and the Journal d'un curé de campagne (1936) both revolve around a parish priest who combats evil and despair in the world. Most of his novels have been translated into English and frequently published in both Great Britain and the United States.
