Review of Converts: From Oscar Wilde to Muriel Spark, Why So Many Became Catholic

In the twilight of Reading Religion, I was able to get in one more review, this time of the book Converts: From Oscar Wilde to Muriel Spark, Why So Many Became Catholic (Yale, 2026). The book is a bit uneven, but overall rich in biographical and spiritual detail, framing several famous conversions (Wilde, Greene, etc.) as "great inner dramas, with a soul in prolonged and agonized dialogue with a silent God, pulled in various directions because of the pleasures and tragedies of life."
