Product Information

Readers of the nine bestselling Mitford novels have been captivated by Jan Karon's ?gift for illuminating the struggles that creep into everyday lives'along with a vividly imagined world? ( People ). They learned quickly that ?after you've spent time in Mitford, you'll want to come back? ( Chicago Tribune ). Millions eagerly awaited the publication of each novel, relishing the story of the bookish and bighearted Episcopal priest and the extraordinary fullness of his seemingly ordinary life. Now, Jan Karon enchants us with the story of the newly retired priest's spur-of-the-moment adventure. For the first time in decades, Father Tim returns to his birthplace, Holly Springs, Mississippi, in response to a mysterious, unsigned note saying simply: ?Come home.' Little does he know how much these two words will change his life. A story of long-buried secrets, forgiveness, and the wonder of discovering new people, places, and depth of feeling, Home to Holly Springs will enthrall new readers and longtime fans alike.

"Far from Mitford and his beloved wife Cynthia, Father Tim Kavanagh enters unfamiliar emotional territory in the town of his birth. When he receives a letter postmarked Holly Springs, Miss., that contains a cryptic two-word message written in a precise, old-fashioned hand, Father Tim decides to answer its call and return to his birthplace for the first time in 38 years. On the long drive, he faces unanswered questions and half-forgotten memories: What happened to his boyhood chum and blood brother, Tommy? What caused his father's melancholy that bordered on cruelty? What happened to Peggy, the adored black caregiver who disappeared when he was 11? Who is trying to contact him, and why? As Father Tim awaits the letter writer, he is showered by blessings: He finds that his hometown has been beautifully restored, and he makes peace with an old flame. When the summons comes, it brings both joy and betrayal. He is reunited with his beloved Peggy, only to learn a terrible secret: She was carrying his father's child when she disappeared. When Peggy reveals that Henry, her son and Tim's half-brother, has leukemia and can only survive with a transfusion from a compatible sibling, Tim has to struggle to reach the decision he knows is right. In this setting away from home, we see Father Tim in a new light as he wrestles with his past and explores the origins of his religious convictions. The saga veers into magical theater as Karon (Cynthia Coppersmith's Violet Comes to Stay, 2006, etc.) ties up every loose end in Tim's past. But readers who miss Mitford's colorful eccentrics will be satisfied by Holly Springs's ample supply of quirky characters. Karon's deft interweaving of past and present infuses the Mitford saga with new energy." -- Kirkus Reviews, "Mitford fans, rejoice! . . . Father Tim answers the summons--and learns that you can go home again."-- The Washington Post "Lovely . . . This is Karon's most emotionally complex novel."-- USA Today "Karon holds varying aspects of humanity up to the light, from staggering cruelty . . . to the awesome power of love and forgiveness."-- The Atlanta Journal-Constitution "Mitford fans will enjoy this newest visit with wise, winsome, lovable Father Tim."-- Publishers Weekly, Far from Mitford and his beloved wife Cynthia, Father Tim Kavanagh enters unfamiliar emotional territory in the town of his birth.

  • Home to Holly Springs by Jan Karon. Wonderful author! I’d recommend it for easy reading!

    This book was so exciting and surprising in the end. I did not see that coming! Not to give away anything. I look forward to the next five books which I have already ordered. Everyone would enjoy this book if they’ve read the first nine books.

  • Wonderful Book! HARDCOVER 2007

    I was so happy to hear that Jan Karon was writing a book about Father Tim's earlier years....his youth and his calling and the people he grew up with in his home town of Holly Springs! Father Tim and his wife Cynthia are enjoying retirement in Mitford, North Carolina, when he receives a mysterious letter postmarked from his home town with only two words written inside....."Come Home." It has been 38 years since Father Tim has been back to Holly Springs, Mississippi, but the letter has stirred many memories for him and so he goes home again. The story moves along at its own pace as you get to know the people from his home town. It is both a satisfying and fulfilling story. The book goes back and forth so we know about Father Tim's childhood and youth and the people who became part of his ...

  • Loving Mitford

    This delightful tale of an Episcopal priest living in a small town, Mitford, in the Carolinas will appeal to a wide range of readers. He winds up marrying late in life, raising adopted sons, facing health crises and living, only as you can live in a small town. Once you read one of the books, you'll be hooked. That's why I looked for the whole set and found it here.
