瑪麗蓮·羅賓遜(1943— ),美國當代著名女作傢,生於愛達荷州,多年來一直在愛荷華大學教授寫作,被公認為“作傢中的作傢”。1980年齣版小說處女作《管傢》,獲得“美國筆會/海明威奬”,並獲得1982年普利策小說奬提名。《管傢》齣版後的20餘年裏,她沒有再涉足小說創作,而將注意力投嚮環保和美國當代思想領域的紛爭。小說《基列傢書》(2004)獲2005年普利策小說奬,這也是奧巴馬*愛的小說之一。《基列傢書》的續篇《傢園》(2008)獲得2009年度橘子奬,並獲得美國國傢圖書奬提名。《萊拉》(2014)可以被視為基列三部麯的結局,獲洛杉磯時報圖書奬,並入圍美國國傢圖書奬的長名單。
此外,羅賓遜一直關注美國社會思想、實證主義和新教傳統的關係,著有多部散文集《祖國 :英國、福利社會和核汙染》(1989)、《亞當之死:當代思想隨筆》(1998)、《思維的缺失:消除自我之現代神話的本性》(2010)、《論事物的給定性》(2015) 。2013年,美國總統奧巴馬親自為她頒發國傢人文奬章。
基列三部麯是羅賓遜*負盛名、技巧幾近完美的作品,優雅而深邃地勾勒瞭人與人之間的倫理關係,也可以被視為美國國傢和文化的一種自我療愈過程,它用那些強有力的靈魂,呈現齣美國失落已久的道德譜係。
Hundreds of thousands were enthralled by the luminous voice of John Ames in "Gilead," Marilynne Robinson's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel. "Home "is an entirely independent, deeply affecting novel that takes place concurrently in the same locale, this time in the household of Reverend Robert Boughton, Ames's closest friend. Glory Boughton, aged thirty-eight, has returned to Gilead to care for her dying father. Soon her brother, Jack--the prodigal son of the family, gone for twenty years--comes home too, looking for refuge and trying to make peace with a past littered with tormenting trouble and pain. Jack is one of the great characters in recent literature. A bad boy from childhood, an alcoholic who cannot hold a job, he is perpetually at odds with his surroundings and with his traditionalist father, though he remains Boughton's most beloved child. Brilliant, lovable, and wayward, Jack forges an intense bond with Glory and engages painfully with Ames, his godfather and namesake. "Home "is a moving and healing book about families, family secrets, and the passing of the generations, about love and death and faith. It is Robinson's greatest work, an unforgettable embodiment of the deepest and most universal emotions.

散齣香氣的文字,掩不過淚水的鹹味。如此的優美,如此的憂傷。
評分It is astoundingly beautiful, the densest work in the Gilead trilogy. It entails a profound reflection on the sinful human predicament, also the antidote to it through the grace of God. Each character is entangled in certain unspeakably painful memories, as the evasiveness reveals the vulnerability of their souls. Phenomenal insights into life.

評分這本比起另兩本Gilead Books確實遜色不少
