ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“Home” by Marilynne Robinson is a poignant exploration of family, faith, and the complexities of human relationships. Set in the small town of Gilead, Iowa, the novel centers on Glory Boughton, who returns to care for her aging father, Reverend Robert Boughton. Her return brings unresolved tensions with her estranged brother, Jack, whose troubled past and absence have left a deep mark on the family. The novel delves into themes of redemption, forgiveness, and the weight of familial expectations, all while examining the intricacies of grace, loyalty, and the search for peace within a fractured family dynamic.
