Description

When Jan Karon published At Home in Mitford, readers across the country fell in love with her cozy town and cast of vivid, endearing characters. Focusing on the adventures and misadventures of a gentle, middle-aged rector, Father Tim, the first novel quickly became a national best-seller. Now, in the second book of the Mitford series, Father Tim finds his heart drawn to his lovely, artistic neighbor, Cynthia. Frequently visiting each other, they make a well-worn path through the hedge that separates their lawns. Meanwhile, recognizing a good catch when she sees one, a wealthy widow in his parish is pursuing Father Tim with fragrant, seductive casseroles. Like the best of storytellers, Jan Karon has an unerring feel for the rhythms and cadences of small town life. She captures all the picturesque details that draw the listener close to the people who fill Father Tim's world. Come on in to A Light in the Window; you'll feel right at home.
