Dorothy Day A Radical Devotion

Dorothy Day A Radical Devotion


Dorothy Day and Robert Coles first met over thirty-five years ago when he worked in her Catholic Worker soup kitchen. They remained close until her death in 1980. Coles' volume is based on many years of conversations, correspondence, and tape-recorded interviews he shared with her. More than a biography, this candid portrait confronts the seeming contradictions of Day's life and lets her unravel them in her own blunt style: the sophisticated Greenwich Village novelist and reporter who converted to Catholicism; the single mother who raised her child in a most unorthodox 'family'; her struggles with loneliness and pride; her devout religious conservatism coupled with her radical politics. - Category: Books/Reading - Misc. - New Item: 461403969 - Dorothy Day A Radical Devotion
