God: Stories de C. Michael Curtis

God: Stories came as a surprise to me because, by the title, I was expecting a book of fun and somewhat irreverent short stories with God as the lovable protagonist. But this was even better. Every story shows a character's interaction and struggle with their spirituality, how it affects our mindset and our lives. Some stories are irreverent or bitter, some are uplifting, but all of them are thoughtful and well-written. I especially enjoyed Gill, Hoffman, Payne, and Pollack

God: Stories de C. Michael Curtis

This collection of short stories is a good balance in every imaginable way: new and well-known writers, across all major types of Judeo-Christian factions, exploring the emotional, intellectual, and spiritual aspects of religion. It offers a new perspective on the life of clergy and a fun look at the life of the congregation. I especially enjoyed: A Father's Story (Andre Dubus), God's Typhoon (John Hersey), The Question of Rain (William Hoffman), Idiots First (Bernard Malamud), The Retreat (Bobbie Ann Mason), Parker's Back (Flannery O'Connor), The Pure in Heart (Peggy Payne), The Rabbi in the Attic (Eilleen Pollack), Defender of the Faith (Philip Roth), and Made in Heaven (John Updike).… (més)
