In Wishful Thinking, Frederick Buechner puts the language of God, the Universe and the human spirit under his wry linguistic microsope. In his open ironic reflections on such terms as envy, love and sin, he invites us to look at these words in new and enlightening ways. Frederick Buechner is author of many books which embrace theology, autobiography and fiction. His novel, Godric, was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize.
