Capa
Ignatius Press, 2006 - 254 páginas
The reader will find, within these pages, a unique and compelling blend of theology and literature, faith and sensibility, meditation and analysis; many of whose insights derive from such disparate sources as the theology of Hans Urs von Balthasar and the artistry of Ingmar Bergman, Flannery O'Connor, and Elie Wiesel.
