- This chapter explores how Marilynne Robinson narrates the unfolding of grace in her novel Lila, what kind of subjectivity her novel portrays, and whether there is a tension , more generally, between the implied understanding of self in her essays and her novel. Primarily it is an inquiry of Lila, as the narrative format of a novel allows a more dynamic understanding of grace and subjectivity to be represented than in the more discursive format of the essay. It calls upon Charles Taylor's and William Desmond's contrast between the 'buffered self' and the 'porous self' in giving an account of the novel's understanding of subjectivity.
