The metaphor of the Church as a 'body' has shaped Catholic thinking since the Second Vatican Council. This book studies a cohort of Catholic authors whose art takes seriously the themes of the Council: from novelists such as Mary Gordon, Ron Hansen, Louise Erdrich, and J F Powers to poets such as Annie Dillard, Mary Karr and Lucia Perillo.
