Reading Genesis
One of our greatest novelists and thinkers presents a radiant, thrilling interpretation of the book of Genesis.For generations, the book of Genesis has been treated by scholars as a collection of documents, by various hands, expressing different factional interests, with borrowings from other ancient literatures that mark the text as derivative. In other words, academic interpretation of Genesis has centered on the question of its basic coherency, just as fundamentalist interpretation has centered on the question of the appropriateness of reading it as literally true. Both of these approaches preclude an appreciation of its greatness as literature, its rich articulation and exploration of themes that resonate through the whole of Scripture. Marilynne Robinson's Reading Genesis, which includes the original text, is a powerful consideration of the profound meanings and promise of God's enduring covenant with man. This magisterial book radiates gratitude for the constancy and benevolence of God's abiding faith in Creation.

Jack
Marilynne Robinson ist eine der großen Stimmen Amerikas. Die mit dem Pulitzer Prize ausgezeichnete Autorin stellt in ihrem neuen Roman »Jack« unnachahmlich die schwierige Balance von Liebe und Vergebung, den Auswirkungen von Rassismus und Verrat vor - ein hochaktuelles Thema in einem leuchtenden Zeitkristall. Jack ist der verlorene Sohn einer weißen Familie. Sein Vater ist Priester, aber er ein obdachloser Herumtreiber und charmanter Vortänzer in schäbigen Dancehalls. Ihn bindet eine zärtlich tragische Beziehung an Della, einer Schwarzen Lehrerin - ein Tabubruch in den USA der fünfziger Jahre, der ihr Leben aus den Angeln hebt. Roman für Roman folgt Marilynne Robinson in ihrer Tetralogie den verzweigten Lebensläufen der Menschen in Gilead, einer kleinen Stadt im Mittleren Westen. Wie in einem Brennglas erfasst sie auf subtile und stille Art die Geschichte Amerikas. »Alles, was Du verlierst, schreibt Robinson, gibt dir die Sehnsucht wieder, und auf diese eigensinnige, stille Weise gestaltet sie eine schöne und geheimnisvolle Welt.« Judith Hermann, Literaturspiegel, über »Lila« »Die Welt könnte mehr solcher Bücher gebrauchen.« Kathryn Schwille, The Atlanta Journal

Breaking Ground
Charting Our Future in a Pandemic YearIn a time of unprecedented human and planetary crisis, Plough and Comment magazines are showing how Christianity can once again seize the cultural high ground. But as their collaborative Breaking Ground anthology shows, this can only be brought about by not neglecting the low ground, since cultivation is an integral affair. If you despair of the future, the writers represented here offer real prophetic hope.” —John Milbank, University of Nottingham
