Books
Check out my "spiritual readings, websites, & misc." blog for various books, writers, and poets. Currently digging Flannery O'Connor, Walker Percy, Rudolfo Anaya, Gabriel Marquez (even though some of his stories are deplorable), Esmeralda Santiago, Sandra Cisneros, and Kathleen Norris (especially her "The Cloister Walk") a great deal. Gotta love Richard Gula, Thomas Merton, Edith Stein, Therese of Lisieux, Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz, and John of the Cross. Enjoying tidbits of Gogol and Kafka. Favorite fiction novels: "A Tree Grows In Brooklyn" "Bless Me, Ultima" "Our Lady of the Lost and Found" "Pest Control" "A Thread of Grace" and "The Power of One." As a kid, I loved the Westside School series and the Imager Chronicles. i like historical fiction and sci-fi infused with cultural and religious themes best. i want to get my hands on "One Like Us" by Jerome Linus German asap.

He heals the brokenhearted
and binds up their wounds.
He tells the number of the stars;
he calls each by name.
