A penetrating and powerful novel about the deep undercurrents of love and regret in one Midwestern family.

In 1939, Maggie Doud married Garfield Maguire. Now, fifty years on, she's Margaret Maguire: a widow and a grandmother, unable to ignore the consequences of having married a cruel and arrogant man. Her daughters are strangers to each other, past hope of reconciling. Margaret's granddaughter could be the one to break the cycle, but she can't do it alone. Beautifully rendered and poignantly told, Evensong masterfully explores a woman's desire for redemption and understanding at the end of her days.
