About Housekeeping

Marilynne Robinson's Housekeeping (1980) follows two sisters, Ruth and Lucille Stone, growing up on the shores of Fingerbone Lake in Idaho after their mother's suicide, in the care of their transient aunt Sylvie. One of the most celebrated American debut novels of the twentieth century and a foundational text of literary fiction about women, impermanence, and the pull of the untamed world against domestic settlement.
