Evensong by Gail Godwin
To read Gail Godwin is to touch the very core of human experience. With inimitable grace and aching emotional precision, Godwin probes our own complexities in characters whose lives oscillate between success and struggle, stoic resolve and quixotic temptation, bitter disappointment and small, sacred joys. Now with Evensong, she again translates our everyday existence into soul-touching truths as she brings to brilliantly realized life the people of a small Smoky Mountain town--and a woman whose world is indelibly altered by them.Gail Godwin is the bestselling author of more than a dozen highly acclaimed works, including the novels Grief Cottage, Flora, Father Melancholy's Daughter, and Evensong, as well as Publishing, a memoir. She has been nominated for three National Book Awards. She has won a Guggenheim Fellowship, funds from the National Endowment for the Arts for fiction and libretto composition, and the American Academy of Arts and Letters' Prize in Literature. She resides in the town of Woodstock, New York. Gail Godwin's website is www.gailgodwin.co.
