"[Shanley's] intense engagement with questions of religion and ethics?remains distinctive and invigorating."?The New York Times

"There's a deeper philosophical vein that the author mines, allowing his language to acquire the heft and timbre of a serious moral debate. . . . We taste bitterness, but also much that is sweet."?Time Out New York

The final installment of John Patrick Shanley's "Church and State" trilogy?beginning with the award-winning Doubt and Defiance?concerns a Bronx Borough President who is forced, by the mortgage crisis, into a confrontation with a local minister. Blending earthy humor and philosophical reflection, this morality tale explores the relationship between spiritual experience and social action.
