About the Author
Christopher Beha is a distinguished American writer and critic whose work bridges the realms of fiction, memoir, and cultural commentary. Born in Brooklyn and educated at Columbia University, Beha has contributed insightful essays to publications like The New Yorker, Harper's Magazine, and The Atlantic, where he explores themes of faith, doubt, and modern identity. His debut novel, The Whole Five Feet, drew from his personal journey through classic literature, while his nonfiction delves into the intersections of religion and skepticism. In Why I Am Not an Atheist: The Confessions of a Skeptical Believer, Beha offers a nuanced defense of spiritual inquiry in a secular age, blending intellectual rigor with personal revelation. A former editor at Harper's, he continues to influence contemporary discourse on belief and humanism through his precise, empathetic prose.
