#My Father’s House

[whilereadingandwalking]

My Father's House by Joseph O'Connor is a historical fiction about a Vatician City priest who helps to set up an 'escape line' out of Nazi Italy and prisoner-of-war camps and saved countless lives. It's a thriller about a big mission organized by Monsignore Hugh O'Flaherty and orchestrated by a group of people who have come together to resist the fascists. The book is inspired by real primary sources.

It was a little longer than it needed to be, and especially near the beginning of the book, O'Connor's rich prose could get in the way a little bit—but once I settled in, it became a fast read. It's an extraordinary story and the characters are complex and richly built. O'Connor did a fantastic job building up the character of the Monsignor and why people would follow him into such a dangerous mission.

I need D'Urge to be a companion 😭 Especially since he's canonical even when you create a custom Tav

(Some headcanons, some based on little snippets of dialogue from the game)

You have no idea the sacrifices that were made to put you on that throne.

I went to the eye doctor's yesterday and I, an adopted person, always feel like "oh no I'm failing the interaction" for some reason by not being able to relate. HOWEVER, I got praised for having common sense so it works out.

“Being initially shocked, Corlys is then very proud. It’s because that’s my son. Off his own back, he’s made something of himself. And I think that’s very important for Corlys because that’s how he sees himself.” — Steve Toussaint as Lord Corlys Velaryon.

Yes, two words, but they mean just more than “well done.” They mean, “I see you.” — Clinton Liberty as Addam of Hull
