Reviews You Can Use

It has become difficult to make regular updates to this cite of my various publications, but here are a few entries that I hope will reward your attention. First and foremost, please click on the icon of the latest review of Saint Thomas and the Forbidden Birds​. It is exhilarating to see a critic approach my work with such detail, appreciation, and finally, plaudits. A huge honor.

I try to do the same in my new Modern Age review essay on Dana Gioia's critical prose. I return to The Catholic Thing with a short essay on one of the central questions of modern theology: how shall we understand Christianity, Psychology, and Creation?

Finally, I include a link to my latest sonnet in National Review, "At the Funeral Parlor," and then, if you scroll down, you can read print versions of two of my new poems in Chronicles magazine. Incidentally, both poems were shortlisted for a large international poetry award, but didn't make the final cut. Another poem of mine soon to be published received a similar almost-honor. Read below and stay tuned!
