With great candor and humor,
Dan Wakefield’s Spiritually
Incorrect: Finding God in All the Wrong Places shows that there
are as many ways to find spiritual fulfillment as there are seekers.
A faculty member in FIU’s Creative Writing Program, Wakefield
and illustrator Marian DelVecchio will conduct a talk and book
signing on Tues., Dec. 2, at 8 p.m., at Books and Books.
In this age of political correctness
and watching what we say, the award-winning author asks risky
(and sometimes hilarious)
questions about spirituality. His creative exploration of these
questions
is a quest to free the spiritual world from pretension, anxiety
and the seemingly endless rules that can dictate how you identify
(or don’t) with religion. Humorous stories from his own spiritually
incorrect journey to God punctuate Wakefield’s ultimate
revelation that spirituality is not about conforming to a set
of rules, but
rather discovering the practices that uniquely work for you.
Publishers Weekly says of the book, “Wakefield offers readers
an engrossing story as well as a guide to spiritual maturity. With
breathtaking honesty, he shows that real spiritual faith requires
that we be explorers, open to the possibility that our wrong turns
and mishaps might lead to the richest territory of all.”
Books and Books is located at 296
Aragon Road in Coral Gables.
