From the publisher

From Simon & Schuster, Frank and Maisie is an unforgettable memoir featuring the author's undauntable parents.

The novelist and essayist, Wilfrid Sheed, presents an exuberant, often humorous memoir of his remarkable, undauntable parents--Maisie Ward and Frank Sheed--recounting their street-corner Catholic evangelism, their lecture and writing careers, and their marriage and relationship.

First line

WHEN I SAY THAT MY FATHER HAPPENED TO FIND HIMSELF A Catholic, I don't mean he did it the easy way, with genial priests rubbing their pink hands in the parlor and jubilant celebrations at Christmas and Easter to make Church and home seem like one to the polymorphous mind of a child.
