Transfiguration

Today is the Feast of the Transfiguration.

Over at Dappled Things, Fr. Jim Tucker has some interesting thoughts (along with several good links) reflecting on the much different sort of light seen at Hiroshima on this date in 1945.

If you’re looking for a good novel reflecting one young man’s personal crisis resulting from the events of that day, check out Chaim Potok’s The Book of Lights.
