Hundreds of thousands of readers were enthralled and delighted by
the luminous, tender voice of John Ames in Gilead, Marilynne
Robinson",s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel. Now comes HOME, a deeply
affecting novel that takes place in the same period and same Iowa
town of Gilead. This is Jack",s story. Jack ? prodigal son of the
Boughton family, godson and namesake of John Ames, gone twenty
years ? has come home looking for refuge and to try to make peace
with a past littered with trouble and pain. A bad boy from
childhood, an alcoholic who cannot hold down a job, Jack is
perpetually at odds with his surroundings and with his
traditionalist father, though he remains Boughton",s most beloved
child. His sister Glory has also returned to Gilead, fleeing her
own mistakes, to care for their dying father. Brilliant, loveable,
wayward, Jack forges an intense new bond with Glory and engages
painfully with his father and his father",s old friend John Ames.
