Jennifer Haigh's Faith
Haigh's latest--after 2008's The Condition--is going to be on a bunch of best of the year lists, I'm calling it now. It's the story of a family torn apart by a scandal involving a priest and a young boy--but not the story you're thinking, as it's narrated by the priest's sister. And it's beautifully written--not just in terms of language, but in how Haigh lets the story unfold, leaving the reader wanting more and then breaking her (my) heart. Great, great, great. A.
