Partial Faiths: Postsecular Fiction in the Age of Pynchon and Morrison
Spiritual conversions figure heavily in such novels as Thomas Pynchons Vineland, Toni Morrisons Paradise, and Louise Erdrichs Love Medicine. What connects such varied works is that their convert-characters are disenchanted with secularism yet apprehensive of dogmatic religiosity. Partial Faiths is the first study to identify a body of contemporary fiction in such terms, take the measure of its structures and strategies, and evaluate its contribution to public discourse on religions place in postmodern life.
