One of Wangerin's most beloved works, Miz Lil & the Chronicles of Grace leads readers on two parallel journeys: one a series of tales from Wangerin's youth as he reveals his descent into human sinfulness, the other a chronicle of his awakening to the great grace of God through relationship with his congregation while pastor of an inner city church. In this series of alternating stories, Wangerin's staggering facility with language is at its most vibrant. Witty, sharp, rollicking, and unexpected, his prose crackles with life and hard-won insight. Characters like Miz Lil, Grandpa Storck, and Jolanda Jones are rendered unforgettable by his vivid writing and their unmistakable humanity. Miz Lil and the Chronicles of Grace is a book shot through with emotional weight, and Wangerin's steady hand carries us through the wasteland of the human heart and lands us squarely in the grace and mercy of God.
