Beloved columnist and Catholic cultural and literary critic, James Keane, brings together 50 writers, thinkers, leaders and reflects on their cultural, political, literary, and religious influence. His accessible style brings thought leaders into conversation with a Catholic sensibility, opening insights and bringing a relevance to our cultural, political, and religious moment. Reading Culture Through Catholic Eyes brings us a thoughtful, critical, and accessible window into 50 writers and thinkers of the last century, their influence on culture and often Catholic and religious thought.

Keane's popular America magazine columns focusing on cultural figures, firebrands, and significant voices, Keane brings his unique Catholic lens in reacquainting readers with significant and sometimes underappreciated writers and thinkers.
