Mary Gordon's fiction explores the nature of love of religion, of family relationships and, in every sense, illuminates and enhances our lives. Raised by five intensely religious women and a charismatic, controversial priest, sheltered from the secular world, Felicitas Maria Taylor is intelligent, charming, and desperate for a taste of ordinary happiness. More freedom than she has ever imagined awaits her at Columbia University in the 1960s. There, Felicitas falls in love with the worst man for her-with shattering results. Now she must turn again to the company of the women who love her, as she struggles to embrace the future without betraying the past.
