Part travelogue, part reportage, part autobiography, The Sign of the Cross is the story of Colm Toibin's religious pilgrimage across Europe.

Between 1990 and 1994, Colm Toibin made a series of trips through Catholic Europe. His journey led him into close contact with people from all walks of life, from priests to politicians, from the intellectually open to the spiritually bigoted. He then set down his impressions in The Sign of the Cross, a beautifully written book filled with personal detail set within its historical context.

Now part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the very best of modern literature.
