The runaway bestseller of 2004 and Finalist for the National Books Critics Circle Award for Fiction "At a moment in cultural history dominated by the shallow, the superficial, the quick fix, Marilynne Robinson is a miraculous anomaly: a writer who thoughtfully, carefully and tenaciously explores some of the deepest questions confronting the human species....Poignant, absorbing, lyrical...Robinson manages to convey the miracle of existence itself."--Merle Rubin, Los Angeles Times Book Review PUB DATE: 44047 Author: ROBINSON, MARILYNNE MEDIUM: TRADE PAPER Imprint : FSG Picador
