This month’s WSJ Book Club author, Marilynne Robinson, has written more nonfiction than fiction. Her latest book, “The Givenness of Things,” is a collection of essays, published in October. “Gilead,” her 2004 novel chosen for the WSJ Book Club by our host, Geraldine Brooks, is part of a trilogy. Why did Ms. Robinson end up with a “Gilead” trilogy instead of a single book? Perhaps because she wasn’t ready to bid farewell to the characters or the place she had created.
