From dust jacket: Seven decisive days in the life of a young clergyman are powerfully and dramatically chronicled in Faith Baldwin’s story of an intelligent young man torn between the ministry and medicine. Assistant Pastor in a Protestant church Ira Stevens doubts his calling to the ministry; as his life unfolds pleasantly enough in a small New England town he is plagued by the loneliness of indecision and by an increasing sense of isolation -- from his work and from his own desires. He wonders if he should return to the medical training he once found so rewarding. In a week filled with introspection bewilderment and intense activity Ira seeks an answer his objectivity confused by his deep troublesome involvement with one woman and by his affection for another. He must of course tend to his parishioners as usual among them Mrs. Armstrong who flaunts a menacing grip on the parish and Ella Downing whose lonely existence masks a tragic secret. As Ira touches extremes of joy misery tenderness and even violence in these lives he also confronts -- and accepts -- surprising elements in his own nature. At the end of seven days he has made a final decision. Holt, Rinehart Winston, 1966. First Edition, stated. hardcover books
