Father Gregory Boyle signed latest tome at Chevalier’s Books
Discussing his latest book “The Whole Language,” Father Gregory Boyle related to an audience at Chevalier’s Books the power of tenderness. The talk and book signing event took place on May 26. The book, his third and now available in paperback, is for sale at the store and elsewhere.
Rev. Gregory J. Boyle, S.J. is the founder and executive director of Homeboy Industries, which grew out of the original, pioneering Homeboy Bakery.
In “The Whole Language,” Boyle draws on personal stories from Homeboy Industries, and he describes how poverty-stricken communities can overcome systemic violence and find hope. His new book returns to the theme of his two previous books, “Tattoos on the Heart” and “Barking to the Choir.”
Boyle grew up on Norton Avenue in Windsor Square and attended St. Brendan church and school and Loyola High School.
