Following on from the magnificent GILEAD, HOME takes up the story of the wayward son Jack who, after decades away, edgily and uneasily, but finally, returns home. He is the prodigal son and his family believe against all evidence , that if they love him enough, if they welcome him back, he will change and he will stay. But of course, that is not how life really goes... Marilynne Robinson's understanding of the human heart, of how families operate, of how and why we continue to forgive and to hope, cuts right to the soul. She writes with wisdom, intelligence and generosity. She writes a masterpiece.

Rezension zu „Home “
**PRAISE FOR GILEAD ** 'A masterpiece' SUNDAY TIMES ** 'Stunning... there are gems on every page of Gilead, but it is the whole construction that marks it as a great work' DAILY TELEGRAPH ** 'The slow pulse of Robinson's writing slows the reader's eye and mind, and creates in the reading process a literary version of the narrator's spiritual experience. Gilead reminds us that words have power to spare, to forgive, to do justice' INDEPENDENT
