What is Unexpected Grace about?
Its 2010 and Alyssa and Richard Bradshaw are living in West Severance, Vermont, in a beautiful wood-and-glass house they built. It sits on land they bought from the Martel familyland which had been part of the Martel farm for generations. Sam and Bonnie Martel live just down the road, and though Alyssa says the burly Sam scares her, the two families get along, even though the Bradshaws are transplants from Connecticut and Vermonters tend to regard anyone who hasnt been there since 1720 an outsider. When Sam loses his job in the granite sheds and Alyssa gets a diagnosis of cancer, the effects begin to ripple outward, affecting multiple generations of both families, from Alyssas 84-year-old mother to Sam and Bonnies grandson. Some relationships are strengthened by these changes, but others are taxed to the breaking point and beyond. Like Willa Cathers Prairie Trilogy, Unexpected Grace is a story about the pioneer spirit, the ordinary tragedies that beset real people, and the moments of beauty and happiness that transcend the darkest times.
