Publisher's Synopsis

James Fisher argues that Catholic culture was transformed when products of the ""immigrant church,"" largely inspired by converts like Dorothy Day, launched a variety of spiritual, communitarian, and literary experiments. He also explores the life and works of Thomas A. Dooley and Jack Kerouac to show that their experiences signaled a new Catholic appreciation of the American tradition of creative freedom.
