Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An eloquent argument for speaking even the most difficult truths.” —New York Times Book Review Paul Moore’s vocation as an Episcopal priest took him— with his wife, Jenny, and their family of nine children—from robber-baron wealth to work among the urban poor, leadership in the civil rights and peace movements, and two decades as the bishop of New York. The Bishop’s Daughter is his daughter’s story of that complex, visionary man: a chronicle of her turbulent relationship with a father who struggled privately with his sexuality while she openly explored hers and a searching account of the consequences of sexual secrets.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Fascinating snapshots of remarkable encounters which, when brought together, chart a delightfully unusual path to literary success."―Booklist "Reading this memoir is like being at one of those memorable dinner parties, attended by the best and brightest, sparkling with wit and excellent conversations. You don’t want it to be over, the conversations to end! But with books, you need not worry. You can go back to the party, savor it, reread it again, and again."―Julia Alvarez, author of In the Time of the Butterflies and Afterlife “Gioia has been uncommonly lucky in meeting many major poets, among them Elizabeth Bishop. His portrait of her in these pages is shrewd and subtle. The famously elusive poet quivers into life here.”―Jay Parini, author of Borges and Me: An Encounter In Studying with Miss Bishop, Dana Gioia discusses six people who helped him become a writer and better understand what it meant to dedicate one’s life to writing. Four were famous authors―Elizabeth Bishop, John Cheever, James Dickey, and Robert Fitzgerald. Two were unknown―Gioia’s Merchant Marine uncle and Ronald Perry, a forgotten poet. Each of the six essays provides a vivid portrait; taken together they tell the story of Gioia’s own journey from working-class LA to international literary success.

Excerpt: ...Lay-Catholicks; and if you pity them not for the good of their Salvation, all other pretended Favours light upon them like Mildews, which are not a fruitful but a satal Moisture. You need not be told, that the use of the Sacraments is the Vital part of the Christian Religion in our Catholick Apprehension. Who shall celebrate them? Who shall impart them to the People, robbed of Christ, if the Priests, the Dispensers of these great Mysteries, be kept from them? You say, that you have done well for the Generality of Catholicks, that they have Liberty of Conscience. I say your Gift is useless, if you permit them not Teachers, who are set over their Consciences. We are more clement to the Churches of HugQitots, and allow them their Ministers. Without that Favour a Rush for all the rest. Should I fend Cloth and Food enough to a Fraternity of Religious Men; what shall they reap from that Charity if none shall be suffered to make them Garments with that Cloth, or permitted to dress the Meat that is sent them? Or Jet rrje spread before you your unmerciful Dealing deep. Obits, Dirges, arid Masses, are not said for nothing. Then in every Family where they cdhie thSy1 disperse Books, for which they are paid fivefold more than the Vklue. And above all, those indefinite Sums imposed for Satisfaction, by the Will of the Confessor, are the strongest Purgation. My Lord, the Priest's little Finger is heavier than the King's Loyns. What they pay by Virtue of our Laws remissly executed, is but like a honorary Present to a Lord in Chief: but what they pay to their Ghostly Fathers is above the Rent of Vassalage. Besides, Philip the Second of Spain founded two Colleges for the Jefuites of this Nation at Sevil and Valledolid, and gave a Competency to their...
