Reviews

'As first-hand accounts from jobbing authors, the essays offer a rare commentary on how spirituality (or for that matter religion or theology) informs or is to be located in a given art form ... In providing an introductory essay that brings these voices into debate, Fiddes goes a long way towards orientating the reader to the themes that turn this collection in to a single book.' (Reviews in Religion and Theology) '...thoughtful assessments of the contemporary novel's link to religion and spirituality.' Journal of Contemporary Religion 'The editor provides a superb introduction to the issues explored in this very recommendable book.' Expository Times '...an outstanding volume of essays...an adroit and instructive book, it remains important reading for anyone wanting to understand the endlessly fascinating field of literature and theology.'
