Lila: Marilynne Robinson

Marilynne Robinson is a writer unlike anyone else in contemporary literature.

She is arguably one of the greatest novelists of our time. Lila is her new novel.

Homeless and alone after years of roaming the countryside, Lila steps inside a small-town Iowa church – the only available shelter from the rain – and so begins a new existence after years of suffering and hardship.

Revisiting the beloved characters and setting of Marilynne Robinson's Gilead and Home, Lila is an unforgettable story about a girl who lived on the fringes of society in fear, awe, and wonder.
