'Where there is great love there are always miracles'
Two French priests have been sent to New Mexico to reawaken the faith. There, they must contend with unforgiving landscapes, danger, rebellion and loneliness.

A work of great simplicity and sublime beauty, Willa Cather's acclaimed novel asks, what is a life well lived?
