The Gilead Novels (Oprah's Book Club) (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Marilynne Robinson's Gilead series-Gilead, Home, Lila, and Jack-is an intergenerational story about faith, race, and love radiating out from the interwoven histories of two families in a small Iowa town to encompass all of American life: our ideals and beliefs, our contradictions, failings, and hopes.

Over the past sixteen years, Marilynne Robinson's now-mythical world of Gilead, Iowa, and the beloved characters who inhabit it, have illuminated and interrogated the complexities of American history, the power of our emotions, and the wonders of a sacred world.

These four novels, which have won one Pulitzer Prize and two National Book Critics Circle Awards, among many other honors, are a vital contribution to contemporary American literature and a revelation of our national character and humanity. Robinson's meditation on the paradoxes of American life has given us "something we only occasionally find in the vastness of existence: a glimpse of eternity" (Sam Sacks, The Wall Street Journal).
