Abide With Me

E-kniha

From the bestselling author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Olive Kitteridge,this is a startlingly beautiful novel about love and abandonment, faith and hypocrisy and the peril of family secrets.

Katherine is only five years old.

Struck dumb with grief at her mothers death, it is down to her father, the heartbroken minister Tyler Caskey, to bring his daughter out of silence. But Tyler is barely surviving himself. Since Laurens death he struggles to find the right words for his sermons how can he be a leader to his congregation when he himself is lost?

When Katherines teacher calls to discuss his daughters anti-social behaviour, it sparks a chain of events that begins to tear down Tylers defences.

The small-town rumour-mill has much to make of Katherines odd behaviour, and even more to say about Tylers relationship with his housekeeper. In Tylers darkest hour, a startling discovery will test his congregations humanity - and his own will to endure the kinds of trials that sooner or later test us all.
