Often described as one of the greatest novelists of our time, Robinson received the National Humanities Medal in 2012.


— The 2004 Pulitzer Prize-winning “Gilead,” Robinson’s first book in the Gilead journey, tells the life story of Rev. John Ames, who, as his health deteriorates, writes a confessional letter to his only son.
— “Home,” a 2008 National Book Award Finalist for Fiction, takes place concurrently in the same locale as “Gilead,” this time in the household of Rev. Robert Boughton, Ames’ closest friend.
— The third book, “Lila,” was a National Book Award Finalist in 2014 and winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award. The novel returns to the town of Gilead in an unforgettable story of a girlhood lived on the fringes of society in fear, awe, and wonder.
— “Jack,” named a Best of 2020 book by numerous media outlets and cited by President Obama as one of his favorite books of the year, is the fourth novel in the cycle and tells the story of John Ames Boughton, the prodigal son of Gilead’s Presbyterian minister in “Home,” and his romance with Della Miles, a high school teacher who is also the child of a preacher.
