Gilead [sound recording] / by Marilynne Robinson.
In 1956, toward the end of Reverend John Ames's life, he begins a letter to his young son, an account of himself and his forbears. Ames is the son of an Iowa preacher and the grandson of a minister who, as a young man in Maine, saw a vision and came west to Kansas to fight for abolition. Reverend Ames tells a story about the sacred bonds between fathers and sons, which are tested in his tender and strained relationship with his best friend's wayward son.
