Review:

"...Elie's presentation of the material is engaging and thoughtful, inspiring reflection and further study. Beginning with four separate figures joined only by their Catholicism and their work as writers, he deftly connects them, using their correspondence, travels, places of residence, their religious experiences and their responses to the tumultuous events of their times. This thoroughly researched and well-sourced work deserves attention from students of history, literature and religion, but it will be of special significance to Catholic readers interested in the expression of faith in the modern world."

Publishers Weekly, 03/10/2003

Review:

"THE LIFE YOU SAVE MAY BE YOUR OWN is clearly a labor of love, and Elie's craftsmanship and affection for his subjects are evident on every page....Elie...manages to intermix all of their stories through every chapter, an architectural feat that is carried off without seeming labored....Elie's fine study is a freeze frame from another era of the perennial search for truth...."

Charles R. Morris, New York Times Book Review, 05/18/2003
