Dear Editor: I write to thank The Tablet for publishing, and Father Robert Lauder for writing, his recent series of insightful and delightful columns about David Brooks’ important book, “The Road to Character.” I enjoyed reading that book and learned a lot from Father Lauder’s illuminating essays.

I look forward to his future work.
