Summary

Auf dem Sterbebett schreibt John Ames einen Brief an seinen siebenjährigen Sohn. Dem Kind will er alles erklären: Die Einsicht, mit der man das eigene Leben auf einen Schlag begreift, den Trost, der in einer einzelnen Berührung liegen kann, und den Ort, der sein Ende beschließt: Gilead, die kleine Stadt unter dem unermesslichen Himmel des Westens, leicht wie Staub und so schwer wie die Welt.
©2004 / 2016 Marilynne Robinson / S. Fischer Verlag GmbH, Frankfurt am Main. Übersetzung von Uda Strätling (P)2016 Argon Verlag GmbH, Berlin
