Faith in Fiction will meet on Monday, May 16th to discuss Lila by Marilynne Robinson.
Location - 803 Cattleya Ct. Louisville, KY 40207
"Lila, homeless and alone after years of roaming the countryside, steps inside a small-town Iowa church - the only available shelter from the rain - and ignites a romance and a debate that will reshape her life. She becomes the wife of a minister, John Ames, and begins a new existence while trying to make sense of the life that preceded her newfound security....When Lila arrives in Gilead, she struggles to reconcile the life of her makeshift family and their days of hardship with the gentle Christian worldview of her husband which paradoxically judges those she loves." - The Publisher, Picador Paper
