 | O Brother, Where Art Thou? May 21, 2010 |
If you liked the 9-volume Mitford series, you will love this novel. I have read & re-read all the books in the series several times, but I must agree with USA Today : " Lovely ... This is Karon's most emotionally complex novel." I would add, it is also a multi-faceted gem, providing readers several layers of depth and genre while maintaining its own unique integrity. It is in parts a mystery story, a young boy's coming of age, a tale of self-discovery, a marriage of past and present, a dramatic family history, and several love stories, all skilfully woven together by Karon in a beautiful tapestry of human frailty and divine light.
Jan Karon states in the Dedication that she knew she must..."find the missing pieces of his early life", referring, of course, to Father Tim. She does that and a lot more. The unanswered questions and unexplained riddles of Father Tim's life are here, as are some unexpected revelations from the past. But I will not disclose any spoilers, nor reveal the cryptic meaning of the title of my review. That is for you to discover, while you are discovering the literary joys of this novel. I doubt you will regret the hours you spend in Holly Springs.
P.S. I was privileged to meet the author a few years ago, and her persona is as inspiring as are her books. | | |  | Home to Holly Springs Mar 27, 2010 |
| After reading many of the authors books, this was a bit of a surprise. I enjoyed the story, but at times, hard to follow. I'm looking forward to her next book in the Father Tim series. | | | | Warm and worth the read Jan 14, 2010 |
| This type of book is quite a ways out of my usual preferences, but I'm glad I read it. Jan Karon's narrative carries you along. Outstanding character development. Read and enjoy. | | | | Excellent condition--as promised! Dec 29, 2009 |
Thanks, Vendor,
for an excellent copy of Home to Holly Springs.
Appreciate your fine service.

By the time I finished the Mitford books, I had kind of overdosed on them. It had been a while since I read them when Home to Holly Springs became available on Bookmooch, so I decided to give it a chance. I'm glad I did. Fr. Tim returns to his boyhood home and interacts with old friends and neighbors as well as some who never met him or his family. He learns about old family secrets and about love. Putting him in a new place with new people allows us to visit our old friend Fr. Tim without feeling like we are reading the same story, only different.
