Choosing Community

Arts & Literature

“Christine A. Colón's new book about Dorothy L. Sayers enriches one's experience and appreciation of even very dear and familiar texts, provoking numerous, Why, of course! moments of illumination and affirming one's sense of home in the Sayers universe. A happy and stimulating combination of the scholarly and eminently readable, this book weaves in and out of Sayers's fiction and personal experience, not only convincingly demonstrating the important dimension of community in her novels and plays but also challenging one to think of the quality and the role of community in one's own life and work. It powerfully reminds us yet again of Sayers's lucid intellect, bold expression, and brilliant humor. Strong and thoughtful responses from a wider community of thinkers, each throwing professional light on various aspects of Dr. Colón's lectures, only strengthen the central thrust of the book and prove yet again the vital role of community in any truly human creative endeavor.”
