Catholic Counterculture in America, 1933-1962

James Fisher argues that Catholic culture was transformed when products of the "immigrant church, " largely inspired by converts like Dorothy Day, launched a variety of spiritual, communitarian, and literary experiments. He also explores the life and works of Thomas A. Dooley and Jack Kerouac to show that their experiences signaled a new Catholic appreciation of the American tradition of creative freedom.Fisher, James Terence is the author of 'Catholic Counterculture in America, 1933-1962' with ISBN 9780807849491 and ISBN 0807849499.
