Mcbrien, Richard. The Church: The Evolution of Catholicism. New York: HarperCollins, 2008. The Church: The Evolution of Catholicism details the history of the Catholic Church from its conception to its current standing in society.
I have realized that my work, despite the likelihood that it would offend devout Catholics, still has an element which almost reveres the religion I've completely rejected. It is so ingrained in me that it's nearly inescapable. The struggle I find with my work, currently, is finding the voice which coherently deals with the subject matter I am so inherently fascinated with.
