The Leonard Feeney Omnibus / Father Leonard Feeney

This collection of poems and other literary works of Father Feeney is not a complete collection, but a large one nonetheless. It includes almost all of four of his best books: Survival Till Seventeen, Fish on Friday, In Towns and Little Towns, and You d Better Come Quietly, as well as some of his other works. You will rarely encounter another modern Catholic poet and writer with such depth of faith and dramatic power with words as Father Leonard Feeney. 
Frank Sheed, of Sheed & Ward, his original publisher and a well-known Catholic writer himself, once labeled him America s Chesterton . Coming from a Catholic Englishman, that is a grand compliment indeed for an American Irishman! 
The priest more than a member of any other profession, understands human nature profoundly, and when this is coupled with literary ability, wittily and tolerantly presented, the product is truly delightful. Commonweal
Father Feeney has... revealed the playfulness of his wit, the keenness of his observing eyes, the tenderness of his Irish heart . . . and above all the dramatic power which is his... America
We need more like him. His laughter is as light as his faith is deep. Boston Evening Transcript: under the heading Favorite Poet
