The All of It

The publisher uses comparisons to authors like Marilynne Robinson and Flannery O’Connor. Now considered a classic, the newest edition from Harper has an introduction written by Ann Patchett. The New York Times Book Review calls it "an elegantly written, compact and often subtle tale of morality and passion that gives voice to an age-old concern in a fresh way." From the publisher: "Set in a small town in Ireland, the seemingly simple tale of a parishioner confiding in her priest, but the tangled confession brings secrets to light that provoke a moral quandary for not only the clergyman, but the reader as well."
