JeannetteHaien’s award-winning first novel relates theseemingly simple tale of a parishioner confiding in her priest, but the tangledconfession brings secrets to light that provoke a moral quandary for not onlythe clergyman, but the reader as well. Set in a small town in Ireland, Haien’s intimate novel of conversations anddilemmas—perfect for readers of Paul Harding’s *Tinkers*, Marilynne Robinson’s *Gilead*, and Flannery O’Connor’s*Wise Blood*—is “an elegantly written, compact and often subtle tale ofmorality and passion that gives voice to an age-old concern in a fresh way” (*NewYork Times Book Review*).Harper Perennial breathes new life into this 1986 classic in a new edition withan introduction by Ann Patchett.
