Landscapes of Encounter
Author: Liam Gearon
Publisher: University of Calgary Press
ISBN: 1552380483
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
Brian Moore (1921 1999) is one of the few novelists whose literary portrayal of Catholicism effectively spans the period prior to and following the Second Vatican Council. Many critics have discussed how Moore's life is reflected in his works, while others have dismissed his fictions as simple narratives in the mould of classical realism. In this timely book, Gearon contends that Moore's fictions are far more complex, as he was one of the great observers of Catholicism in all its modern and historical controversy. .
