The idea that Robinson interprets Calvin’s “fallen state” of humanity in epistemological terms in her essays—that human knowledge is conditioned by finitude—is placed into social-ethical terms in Home. “Sin” might be defined as meaning well and doing harm. It’s woven into social relations, unable to be dislodged by any human will, a mysterious, almost metaphysical reality. “Grace” is that rare, holy moment of meaning well and doing well, which occurs by a strange harmony of intention, action, and receptivity, such as when Glory buys new clothes for Jack and for whatever reason he receives them gladly.81
