Every summer, fifteen-year-old Miriam Horton and her family pack themselves tight in their old minivan and travel through small southern towns for revival season: the time when Miriamās fatherāone of the Southās most famous preachersāholds massive healing services for people desperate to be cured of ailments and disease. But, this summer, the revival season doesnāt go as planned, and after one service in which Reverend Hortonās healing powers are tested like never before, Miriam witnesses a shocking act of violence that shakes her belief in her fatherāand her faith.
When the Hortons return home, Miriamās confusion only grows as she discovers she might have the power to healāeven though her father and the church have always made it clear that such power is denied to women. Over the course of the following year, Miriam must decide between her faith, her family, and her newfound power that might be able to save others, but if discovered by her father, could destroy Miriam.
Celebrating both feminism and faith, Revival Season is a ātender and wiseā (Ann Patchett) story of spiritual awakening and disillusionment in a Southern, Black, Evangelical community.
