From Library Journal
Far from the "how to" manual its subtitle suggests, this collection of talks first delivered at a 1987 meeting of the Book of the Month Club features discussions by six authors on how their own experiences nurture creativity and spiritual growth. The diversity here is rich and the musings fascinating, whether it be Allen Ginsberg on Pound and Kerouac, Jaroslav Pelikan on the ways Augustine's Confessions became a tool for grace, or Mary Gordon's reflections on her own Catholic background. Artful, provocative, and sophisticated. EC

From Publishers Weekly
This third installment in the Writer's Craft series presents six American writers whose work is based in spiritual concerns: Mary Gordon, Frederic Buechner, Hugh Nissenson, Allen Ginsberg, Jaroslav Pelikan and David Bradley. "Their widely different approaches all testify to the connection between faith and art. An informal bibliography of each writer's favorite books makes this a doubly instructive volume," stated PW.
