We knew how to write correct sentences, but fiction doesn’t live or die by correctness. No matter what we did, we couldn’t figure it out. Then, years later, we discovered Robert Butler, who taught us how to write a story. It turned out that we didn’t know what sentences in fiction were for. Most writers never learn this explicitly, but once we saw it, we couldn’t unsee it.

Part I of Belonging Again attempted to explain our circumstance through thinkers like Peter Berger, Philip Rieff, and James Hunter. Part II will work to address our circumstance, arguing what it would mean to think economics, politics, sociology, and the like in light of the arguments of Belonging Again. In this, our aim is to show that in “The Meaning Crisis” there can be reason to hope.
