Episode description as stored

It's a very special week on Zero to Well-Read as Jeff and Rebecca pick up one of their shared favorite novels, Marilynne Robinson's magisterial meditation on life, death, family, and faith. They discuss why a book where almost nothing happens is impossible to put down, how Robinson examines the great mystery of existence without ever getting heavy or preachy, and the reasons Gilead has stayed with both of them for more than twenty years.
