Exploring the intersection of intense religious beliefs and pluralism in modern America, the book delves into how belief can exist without strict doctrine. It highlights the significance of religious imagination in contemporary practices and in notable American literature over the past fifty years. Amy Hungerford illustrates how imaginative literature and religious practices enable writers and critics to elevate language to a transcendent level, imbuing words with a religious significance that transcends their literal meanings.
