WITH A TWO-PART INTERVIEW BETWEEN MARILYNNE ROBINSON AND PRESIDENT OBAMA THAT FIRST APPEARED IN THE NEW YORK REVIEW OF BOOKS

The incomparable Marilynne Robinson has delivered an impassioned critique of contemporary society--our addiction to technology, our materialism--while arguing that reverence must be given to who we are and what we are: creatures of singular interest and value, despite our errors and depredations.

Robinson has plumbed the depths of the human spirit both in her novels, including the National Book Critics Circle Award-winning Lila and the Pulitzer Prize-winning Gilead, and in her new essay collection she trains her incisive mind on our modern predicament and the mysteries of faith. These seventeen essays examine the ideas that have inspired and provoked one of our finest writers throughout her life. Whether she is investigating how the work of the great thinkers of the past--Calvin, Locke, Bonhoeffer, and Shakespeare--can infuse our lives, or drawing attention to the rise of the self-declared elite in American religious and political life, Robinson's peerless prose and boundless humanity are on display.

Exquisite and bold, The Givenness of Things is a necessary call for us to study our cultural heritage in search of both wisdom and guidance and to offer grace to one another.

Quiet Luxury Look Without the Designer Price
I bought this bag because I genuinely loved the color, woven design, and overall look of it, not because I needed validation from carrying a designer label. Honestly though, it can easily pass the Bottega Veneta vibe test at first glance. The design looks very elegant and expensive without trying too hard. What surprised me most was how lightweight it is while still fitting all my essentials. I was able to comfortably fit my phone, car keys with remote, cards, and small makeup touch up items inside without making the bag bulky. The gold tone is beautiful in person and pairs so well with both dressy and minimal outfits. It’s one of those bags that instantly elevates the entire look.
