Housekeeping

Marilynne Robinson

1980 · Literary Fiction
Picked by Marta
Robinson's first novel, written before Gilead, and in some ways more radical. Two sisters in a small Idaho town are raised by a succession of relatives after their mother's death. The prose is unlike anything else in American fiction — biblical in rhythm, precise in observation.
