"and so it became good, it became "good" in a way which is toxic for those who don't belong"

Rowan Williams on Marilynne Robinson's Gilead cycle and Lila and everything else.

  1. I have very recently read Gilead because of Marilynne Robinson being mentioned here. I found the book so moving I followed it right up with Lila and now am working through Home. Rowan Williams' discussion was so insightful and moving. I will need to listen to it again. The central theme that we are saved together and because of each other is enormously powerful, and very humbling. There is much more I would like to say, but I think I should really reflect and discern first. Thank you for providing this.

  2. It's a pleasure. I thought I should go back and read the novels again after listening to Rowan Williams on them.
