Marilynne Robinson, winner of the Pulitzer Prize, the Women's Fiction Prize, the National Book Critics Prize and and The American National Humanities Medal,returns to the world of Gilead with Jack, the final novel in one of the great works of contemporary American fiction.Setting her novel in the time just before Gilead, Home and Lila, after World War II, JACK is John Ames Boughton's book.
The grieved-over prodigal son, a drunkard and a ne'er-do-well has left home for St Louis. In that segregated city Jack falls in love with an African-American high school teacher, also a preacher's child. Della Miles is a woman with a discriminating mind, a generous spirit and an independent will.

as in her portrayl of this wayward, much-loved son.
