Housekeeping (40th Anniversary Edition)

Marilynne Robinson's Housekeeping, narrated by Therese Plummer, is a poignant tale that follows sisters Ruth and Lucille as they navigate an unconventional upbringing in the small town of Fingerbone, marked by personal loss and familial eccentricity. Raised by their grandmother, then by two incompetent great-aunts, and finally by their enigmatic aunt Sylvie, the sisters confront the complexities of life against a backdrop of a haunting landscape and tragic family history. This fortieth anniversary edition includes a bonus conversation with the author, adding depth to this modern classic that explores themes of loss and the struggles of growing up.
