The following excerpt is from Marilynne Robinson's novel Gilead (published in 2004). In this passage, a Christian minister sets out with his son to find the grave of his father, who
was also a minister. Narrated by the young son, this scene takes place in Kansas in 1892
during a drought. Read the passage carefully. Write a paragraph in which you make a
defensible claim regarding how Robinson uses literary elements and techniques to convey
the significance of the setting for the son and his father. In your paragraph, you should
incorporate at least one piece of evidence from the text to support your claim.
