Sacred and Profane Love Episode 12: Meaning, Murder, and Divine Madness

In Episode 12 of Sacred & Profane Love, "Meaning, Murder, and Divine Madness," I speak with the eminent moral theologian, Fr Michael Sherwin, O.P., about Donna Tartt's breakout bestseller, The Secret History.  We discuss how the novel is best situated within both the Southern Gothic and the Southern Catholic Gothic literary genres, and how Donna Tartt, like Flannery O'Connor, understands the task of the novelist as helping us come to see ourselves and our world as it truly is.
