Housekeeping

I started a lit club this year, and for one of our reads, we dove into Marilynne Robinson's Housekeeping:

Love this. Favorite discussion topics for this novel include:

• water: baptism, rebirth, circle of life
• ghost children
• gorgeous Shakespearean language
• different styles of housekeeping and mothering
• transience and home
• Fingerbone
• incredible characterization

This book is short but requires time to pick through because it's packed. The time invested in savoring the language is worth it.
