Sinossi
Two widows walk home along a lawless road in the days when the judges ruled, and one of them will not leave the other. What waits at the end of that road is a barley field, a graying kinsman who long ago closed the book of his own life, and a midnight on a threshing floor that will lift a whole dead name back into the light. A foreigner, a widow, and childless, Ruth of Moab has lost the two things that make a woman safe in that world and never had the third, which is belonging. When she binds her life to her broken mother-in-law on the Moab road, with everything to lose and nothing to gain, she does the purest and most reckless thing in scripture, and walks by pure chance into the field of the one man in Bethlehem who kept the old law of kindness in his heart. Told as the great harvest romance it always was, this is the whole story behind the Book of Ruth: the bitter homecoming of Naomi, who renamed herself for grief; the quiet, watchful love that kindles between a foreign gleaner and the man who protects her before he dares to woo her; the audacious night on the threshing floor; and the duel fought at the town gate by law instead of swords, won by the kinsman who loses, and lost by the one who wins his point. A companion to King David, and the story of the great-grandmother of the king. She came up the road with nothing, and the town called her stranger. This is the story of how a foreigner's loyalty on a hard road became the ancestry of a shepherd, a king, and a covering of wings for the whole world.
