Congrats, Kristin Grady Gilger - My Son, The Priest: A Mother’s Crisis of Faith is out today!

“Gilger’s prose is consistently engaging—it’s succinct, humorous, and laced with self-awareness. . . . An exploration of faith, doubt, and family that expertly balances tender recollection with sharp insight.” —Kirkus Reviews

“Kristin Grady Gilger wowed me with an astonishing memoir about her son’s joining the Jesuits despite her having high-tailed it out of the Church for the typical reasons—birth control and abortion, the hierarchy and scandals. But over time, his profound faith opened her heart and mind in ways you’ll never see coming. I champion this read for reader and cynic alike: it’s a page turner. Bravo!” —Mary Karr, author of the New York Times best-selling memoirs The Liars’ Club, Cherry, and Lit

Congrats, Rodger Kamenetz, on the publication of Seeing Into the Life of Things: Imagination and the Sacred Encounter!

“This book is a harvest of living wisdom, a ripening of the garden Rodger Kamenetz has been cultivating for decades. Tenderly and with lucid insight, he walks us through the gates of poetry and dreams, of Jewish mysticism and Zen Buddhism, of science and art. Not only does Kamenetz celebrate the power of the imagination to open our souls, but the abundance of images he scoops up from his own life and offers to us with outstretched hands cannot help but transform our ordinary lives from a set of tasks to be accomplished into an ever-unfolding sacred encounter.” —Mirabai Starr, author of God of Love and Ordinary Mysticism

Join Rodger for the book launch tonight at Octavia Books in New Orleans.
