What does it mean to become a human being? This question was persistently repeated by Kierkegaard scholar Howard V. Hong to students. As one of Dr. Hong's students, Jamie Lorentzen never forgot the question. In Becoming Human, Lorentzen's Kierkegaard studies inform commentary on how central characters in four works of literature help readers answer Howard Hong's question.
