William Orem writes about spiritual quest across different cultures and times. He also has a series of sub-interests, from modern science to the literary gothic.

The book Zombi, You My Love, is set at a mission in Haiti during the last summer of the Duvalier regime; Across the River is a linked series of stories, each of which takes place in a different room of a Georgetown hospital; Killer of Crying Deer is a spiritual struggle set in 1699 in what are now known as the Florida Keys, while the poetry collection Our Purpose In Speaking alternates between formal and free verse in examining the different facets of a Catholic childhood. The common thread among them all is the authentic search for the soul.
