Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -According to the Pattern is a characteristic Grace Livingston Hill novel of domestic trial, moral testing, and providential renewal. Taking its title from the biblical injunction to build according to a divine design, the book turns everyday life-home, courtship, duty, disappointment-into a field of spiritual discipline. Hill's prose is plain yet emotionally persuasive, blending sentimental fiction, evangelical reflection, and the late-nineteenth-century tradition of the Christian conduct novel. Its literary context is the popular religious romance, where narrative pleasure serves an explicitly moral and devotional purpose. Grace Livingston Hill was shaped by Presbyterian faith, family ministry, and the practical pressures of authorship. Born in 1865 into a household of writers and ministers, she inherited both a command of popular storytelling and a conviction that fiction could guide readers toward Christian living. Her own experiences of bereavement, work, and dependence on faith help explain the novel's concern with endurance, obedience, and the search for God's pattern amid ordinary hardship. Readers who value spiritually earnest fiction, historical Christian romance, or women's popular writing of the early twentieth century will find this novel rewarding. It offers not irony but consolation, not modern ambiguity but a disciplined vision of love shaped by conscience and faith. N° de réf. du vendeur 9788028339241
