ABOUT  

Best Spiritual Literature is the new name of The Orison Anthology, under the same editorship and publisher, and it continues the same mission to collect the finest spiritually engaged writing that appeared in periodicals in the preceding year. In addition to reprinted material, each year the anthology also includes new, previously unpublished works of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry by the winners of The Best Spiritual Literature Awards. The award winners for Vol. 11 were Jyotsna Sreenivasan (fiction), selected by Halle Hill; Amy Lutz (nonfiction), selected by Athena Dixon; and Sharon Dolin (poetry), selected by Yehoshua November. Best Spiritual Literature is digitally archived by EBSCOhost.
