'A book whose grandeur is found in its humility. Gilead is a kind of mythic everyplace, a quintessential setting where our country's complicated union with faith, in all its degrees of constancy and skepticism, is enacted,'---Wall Street Journal. In the finale volume of her synoptic trilogy, Robinson fleshes out the life of Jack, who was 'the black sheep.' 304 pages, hardcover. Farrar, Straus and Giroux.
