    "Gilead"

    I finished reading "Gilead" on Thursday. Marilynne Robinson is a beautiful writer. "Gilead" would be the ideal book for a lazy summer afternoon spent in a hammock -- it's certainly not an action-packed romp. One phrase that struck me particularly:
    I'm writing this in part to tell you that if you ever wonder what you've done in your life, and everyone does wonder sooner or later, you have been God's grace to me, a miracle, something more than a miracle."
