Memoirs of a Nun on Fire

A new book by Philomene Long

Beat generation Poet five years behind convent walls before her escape into the world of angel hipsters and Zen saints.

About Memoirs of a Nun on Fire Jim Carlson says:

“Philomene Long’s prose is darkly charged and cinematic, a prison movie full of faces Fellini would be startled by…. Though dark, the writing is appropriately wide-eyed as well. Philomene has succeeded in sharing “one long episode of shock.”

“She entered the convent as a rather wild teenager and became a rather wild nun.”

Jack Foley Poet-Writer- KPFA Radio
