Can you recommend any good contemporary Catholic writers or anyone who writes from a more traditional Christian perspective?

It seems like before WWII you had heavy hitters like Henri Gheon and Evelyn Waugh and Belloc and Chersterton among others, and now nothing.

Rene Girard is doing a good job of making Christianity a credible political philosophy in postmodern times.

Edward Feser and Fr. James Schall are the greatest living Thomists.
