SUMMARY:Author Luncheon with Nickolas Butler
DESCRIPTION:Join the staff of Lake Forest Book Store at The Deer Path Inn in welcoming author Nickolas Butler\n\nLITTLE FAITH\n\nEcco Press  $27.00  Releases March 5\, 2019\n\nThursday\, April 25\, 2019 at 11:30 AM\n\nat The Deer Path Inn\n\n255 East Illinois Road\n\nLake Forest\, IL 60045\n\n$55 includes lunch and a copy of the book\n\nReservations required. Call 847-234-4420\n\nIn this moving new novel from celebrated author Nickolas Butler\, a Wisconsin family grapples with the power and limitations of faith when one of their own falls under the influence of a radical church. Lyle Hovde is at the onset of his golden years\, living a mostly content life in rural Wisconsin with his wife\, Peg\, daughter\, Shiloh\, and six-year old grandson\, Isaac. After a troubled adolescence and subsequent estrangement from her parents\, Shiloh has finally come home. But while Lyle is thrilled to have his whole family reunited\, he's also uneasy: in Shiloh's absence\, she has become deeply involved with an extremist church\, and the devout pastor courting her is convinced Isaac has the spiritual ability to heal the sick. While reckoning with his own faith--or lack thereof--Lyle soon finds himself torn between his unease about the church and his desire to keep his daughter and grandson in his life. But when the church's radical belief system threatens Isaac's safety\, Lyle is forced to make a decision from which the family may not recover. Set over the course of one year and beautifully evoking the change of seasons\, Little Faith is a powerful and deeply affecting intergenerational novel about family and community\, the ways in which belief is both formed and shaken\, and the lengths we go to protect our own.\n\nNickolas Butler was born in Allentown\, Pennsylvania\, and raised in Eau Claire\, Wisconsin. He is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison as well as the Iowa Writers' Workshop\, and the author of the novel The Hearts of Men\, the internationally bestselling and prizewinning novel Shotgun Lovesongs\, and the acclaimed short story collection Beneath the Bonfire.  He lives in Wisconsin with his wife and their two children.
