About this title

Review:

"Remarkable . . . an even stronger accomplishment than Gilead." --Claire Messud, The New York Review of Books

"An exquisite, often ruefully funny meditation on redemption." --Megan O'Grady, Vogue

"An anguished pastoral, a tableau of decency and compassion that is also an angry and devastating indictment of moral cowardice and unrepentant, unacknowledged sin. . . . . Beautiful." --A. O. Scott, The New York Times Book Review

"Rich and resonant . . . Gilead and Home fit with and around each other perfectly, each complete on its own, yet enriching and enlivening the other. But both are books of such beauty and power." --Emily Barton, Los Angeles Times

"Marilynne Robinson is so powerful a writer that she can reshape how we read." --Mark Athitakis, Chicago Sun-Times

"Home begins simply, eschewing obvious verbal fineness, and slowly grows in luxury--its last fifty pages are magnificently moving. . . . Powerful." --James Wood, The New Yorker

"When Marilynne Robinson writes a new book, it's an event." --Pat MacEnulty, Charlotte Observer

Book Description:

* From the author of the magnificent, award-winning GILEAD comes a masterpiece novel that returns to the people and places of Gilead. Winner of the Orange Prize.
