Description
Little Faith by Nickolas Butler is a powerful and deeply affecting novel about family and community. Lyle Hovde's life is turned upside down when his estranged daughter Shiloh returns home with her young grandson, Isaac, who has become embroiled in an extremist church. As the seasons change, Lyle must confront his own faith and the growing threat posed by the church to his relationship with his daughter and grandson. The story unfolds over the course of a year, exploring the complexities of belief and its impact on family dynamics. With beautiful evocations of the natural world, Butler crafts a narrative that is both deeply affecting and thought-provoking. This novel raises important questions about the lengths we go to protect our loved ones and the ways in which our beliefs shape us.
