Robinson fans will be hungry for the next chapter in the Gilead saga, and the beauty and humanity of Robinson’s prose will win over new fans. Highly recommended.
Recommended for larger collections and church libraries. [ "A fine collection by a skillful and thoughtful writer that will appeal to anyone interested in the connection between religion and literature, or who savors reading a solid discussion of deep topics": LJ 9/15/15 review of the Farrar hc.]
A fine collection by a skillful and thoughtful writer that will appeal to anyone interested in the connection between religion and literature, or who savors reading a solid discussion of deep topics.
While some readers may yearn for more action and structure, this is a lovely and touching story that grapples with the universal question of how God can allow his children to suffer. Recommended for fans of Robinson as well as those who enjoyed Elizabeth Strout's Olive Kitteridge, another exploration of pain and loneliness set against the backdrop of a small town.
