Peter A. Heasley, born in the suburbs of Detroit, Michigan, is a Catholic priest, pastor of two parishes in New York City, and professor of Scripture. Before all this (and after a few years as a Peace Corps volunteer in Mali, West Africa), he has worked an architect in Manhattan and Brooklyn. Through a kind of speculative fiction he calls "incarnational surrealism," he hopes to open the imagination of those wounded in soul to a greater world of wholeness.
