Grappling with God The faith of a famous poet ~ W H Auden regarded Christianity as possessing a marvelous power to change human lives Inexplicably however critics have largely neglected the effects of Audens mature commitment to Christianity Arthur Kirsch in Auden and Christianity remedies that neglect with this muchneeded study of how Audens religious beliefs shaped his artistic vision
