St. Fidgeta and Other Parodies : ウィキペディア英語版 | St. Fidgeta and Other Parodies
''St. Fidgeta & Other Parodies'', a mostly uncategorizable spoof of 1960s Catholicism, was the first published work by John Bellairs. The original St. Fidgeta article first appeared in the Chicago-based Catholic magazine, the ''Critic.'' it describes the putative life of St. Fidgeta ("Quieter of the giggly / Steadier of the wiggly"), a seven-year-old martyr and the patroness of unmanageable children. A subsequent book appeared with eleven other vignettes that offered sardonic comment on the Vatican II era. Long out of print, ''St. Fidgeta'' was re-released in the 2009 anthology, ''Magic Mirrors'', published by the New England Science Fiction Association press. ==Author's Note== "I would like to thank my friends, Dale and Marilyn Fitschen, for all their help. They suffered through endless readings from the Urtext and gave me many suggestions and ideas. I would also like to thank my friend Bernard Kent Markwell, to whom St. Fidgeta first appeared on a rainy day in front of the Oriental Institute in Chicago. He was struck to the ground by the vision, and after he had rolled about for a bit, he got up and told me what he had seen. He also gave me many ideas: in fact, if you do not like some part of this book, you may attribute it to him."
