News for 'sister-jesme'

Former Kerala nun's tell-all book is a bestseller

The autobiography of a former nun in Kerala, in which she recounts her 'harrowing' experiences during her time spent in the convents, is selling like hot cakes even as the influential Catholic Church is yet to react to the charges in the book. In her memoirs in Malayalam titled Amen (so be it), 'Sister' Jesme writes of alleged sexual abuse, corruption and power struggles in the 'dark confines' of convents where she had lived for over 30 years.
