Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Grace was never the hard part. Living inside it is.

Marcus, Claire, Jordan, Thomas, and Elene are back - further into the ordinary lives that Book One cracked open, and further into the harder question underneath it: what happens after you stop performing for something that was never watching your performance to begin with?

A Tuesday night group keeps growing, week after week, until the folding chairs run out. A father finally tells his wife the shame he's carried since a funeral. A woman stands in front of a room about to do to a stranger exactly what was almost done to her, and finds out she's finally fast enough to stop it. A young man hands a piece of paper to someone younger than him - the same one that once got handed to him - and watches it change everything, slowly, the way real things do.

THE VEIL: THE STRUGGLE & THE REVELATION is the second half of a story that began with five strangers in a grief support group and has become something closer to a family - one that keeps making room at the table for people who have no idea yet how badly they need it.

Told with the same patience and refusal to explain itself that made Book One work, this is a novel about what it costs, and what it gives back, to actually live like grace was never something you had to earn.

For readers of Marilynne Robinson and Kent Haruf, and anyone still working out what to do with a faith they can't quite leave and can't quite keep the old way.

Book Two of The Veil, a story told in three acts.
