"Gilead"

I discoverd a book that is mesmorizing. The author, Marilynne Robinson, has earned a PEN/Hemingway Award and teaches at the Iowa Writer's Workshop. I am captivated by the simply lyrical prose of this novel and know that I will be recommending it to many. Rich and vast, it talks about what most great novels talk about -- relationships and people and God...is there really anything else?
