Dorothy Day's Days

James Martin, S.J.July 18, 2008

America will shortly be publishing a brief review of mine of The Duty of Delight, the dazzling new collection of Dorothy Day’s diaries, but you might want to check out this new piece in The Tablet for a fuller treatment.  The book is simply stunning.  And, as I mention in The Tablet, full of surprises! 

James Martin, SJ
