Corrigan told me once that Christ was quite easy to understand. He went where He was supposed to go. He stayed where He was needed. He took little or nothing along, a pair of sandals, a bit of a shirt, a few odds and ends to stave off the loneliness. He never rejected the world. If He had rejected it, He would have been rejecting mystery. And if He rejected mystery, He would have been rejecting faith.
Let The Great World Spin

I’m currently giving McCann and his fictionalized Dublin to New York brothers’ tale space to teach me something I have yet to discover. How could I know what I need to learn anyway? The world is a mystery of faith.

Oh my, Sommer — I just got a personalized reading list from my library (no, really, I took this survey and then a librarian produced a list of books she thinks I’ll like), and this book is on there. It’ll be interesting, to say the least, to see what we both discover in this book, eh?
