New episode with Chris Beha, editor @Harpers and author of The Index of Self-Destructive Acts. He makes that the case that Pontoppidan's Lucky Per is a masterpiece of modern literature. https://open.spotify.com/episode/1bVulnOUz7j2viqQwr5fMr?si=u55ona6aRk6cg4Y8TSREUg

This Sunday evening (7PM) I'm hosting a salon on Flannery O'Connor's vision of grace. Often labeled a "hillbilly nihilist" she protested that she was in fact a "hillbilly Thomist" who wrote about sin and God's grace. Come join us to read and discuss her stories and essays! https://t.co/QpsID0WEiX

@PhilKlay @AdrianBonenber1 Ah, could go on for ages about this! Herbert McCabe's dissertation and Brian Davies's book hugely influential for me. God and Evil in Aquinas and Thomas Aquinas on God and Evil.

New episode on Henry James' Washington Square! @MrsKatyCarl and I discuss how duty is not only an insufficient guide to living well, but potentially destructive of human goods. Without the keen perception afforded by virtue, duty can be a dangerous master. https://t.co/9MbxJIKzsm

Just had the most wonderful conversation with @rooseveltmontas about his new book, Rescuing Socrates. I can't wait to share it with you, but for now, I just want to say that it's a tremendously important and timely book, and you should definitely read it!
