Child abuse in the church: Steven Uhly talks about his novel – Munich

Of

Antje Weber

A priest sits in the confessional opposite a man who wants to talk about his pedophilic tendencies. This is the starting point of Steven Uhly’s new novel “The Sum of the Whole” (Secession); it culminates in a concentrated, dense chamber play about unsettling questions. It is already the eighth novel by the author, who has lived in Munich for many years.
