The Conference . . .
As promised a few morsels:
The Future of the Catholic Literary Imagination
was a meeting, a coming together of writers who
believe that faith can enrich the literary world.
On Thursday, February 19th, Julia Alvarez opened
the Conference with a delightful reading of her poetry.
Her energy was a force that lit up The Doheny Library.
Mr. Gioia needed no introduction--in fact he introduced
speakers, always with a great personal knowledge of
their writing.
(Dana Gioia and Gary Adler were responsible
for much of the smooth running of this Conference.)
St. Peter's B-List is an anthology of poetry
edited by Mary Ann B. Miller. Some of
the many writers included in the book read
their enticing and inspired poems.
Someone else was at the Conference.We knew Him as we broke bread together
at the Caruso Catholic Center; we felt His
presence as we shared our faith and creative
works. . .
