Inkling maker6/2/2023 ![]() Perhaps it was that a lot of her examples of writers were people in her day who I am not familiar with. We get writing and authors and creativity.Īll that said, I started to lose interest in this book. But most people don't get quantum physics. I recall seeing people talking about how the science of quantum physics is showing relationship as the core of the universe and maybe that's true. Personally, I find this analogy much more helpful then others I've read. In some way this images the Christian view of Trinity. A writer or artist has an idea in her head, then puts this idea on paper and then this piece of art is received by someone else. Her main point is that we see the Trinity echoed in how humans create. She talks about how people think God is mysterious and argues, basically, that everything is mysterious. I've always wanted to read Dorothy Sayers, so I finally did. I highly recommend it, especially for writers. It was one of several, though, where I was left wondering how far she would go. The capitalism critique/creativity problem stuck out in my mind because that is an area I give a lot of thought. But what is the alternative? Not making Christmas ornaments? I was confused by what she meant by artists.if we all have creativity, why are there some more clearly designated as "creators"? I would have preferred some more explanation. For example, her critique of capitalism was a fair one and I agree that often creativity is sacrificed for productivity. Or perhaps I should say, I could only follow her so far with the limited definitions she provides. Also, sometimes I found I could only agree with her so far. In theory I understood the concept of the Creative Idea, the Creative Energy, and the Creative Power well enough, but I still had to go back several times to make sure I followed her correctly. ![]() Why the hesitation then? Well, at the risk of sounding somewhat dense, I sometimes found her hard to follow. This certainly will get multiple re-reads down the road. There were some really fabulous quotes and observations in this book as well. I was forced to think more deeply about what it means to be made in the image of God and I love that Sayers tackles our "analogy" of God as a Creator. Even better, not only did I learn about a theological concept, I got to learn more about the writing and creative process. I love Sayers's writing and her approach to the Trinity intrigued me.
