...sank, in parlor games, ventriloquism, a pretty shrew of a wife, his art, and the bottle. He turned restlessly to science. He patented a preservative for ships' timbers and a system for heating houses, developed a "new theory of the universe" which attributed the movement of astral bodies in space to electrical attractions and repulsions.

...book is, by contrast, charming. But the recordings of the author's interviews with her make up less than half of the book's content. She is an ingenuous young lady who seems to have been as fond of her priest as her husband. Once in the astral world, she says she saw a lot of Father John, but Brian wasn't around much.
