I’m so pleased and proud to share the news that an essay I wrote for Dappled Things has been awarded first place in the 2025 Jacques Maritain Prize for Nonfiction. What an honor to be awarded a prize named after such an illustrious French Catholic philosopher.

My essay is entitled, with a hat tip to Gilbert & Sullivan, “The Very Model of a Modern Catholic Comedy.” If you’d like to read it, simply follow the link below.
