About “Lila”
Neglected as a toddler, Lila was rescued by a canny young drifter, Doll, and the two crafted a hardscrabble life on the run marked by petty violence, desperation, joy, and love. Alone and homeless, Lila later steps into a small-town Iowa church to shelter from rain, becomes the wife of minister John Ames, and struggles to reconcile her past with his gentle Christian worldview.
