"Saints and Sinners" contains a rich variety of material whose diverse approaches capture the essence and texture of Catholicism since World War II. There are essays of social commentary and theological discourse, dramatic fiction about characters in deep spiritual conflict or immersed in the joy of life, and memoirs of ethnic heritage and of comic clashes of cultures and ideas.
