Marcia Hutchinson is one of the Guardians Debut Novelists for 2025. Her novel “The Mercy Step” is a force of nature. Russ Litten will be in conversation with Marcia at this special FREE launch event. There will be readings, conversation and Q&A. Join us as we celebrate the publication of this brave and brilliant book from a dynamic new voice in fiction.
‘A precocious Mercy makes her reluctant entrance into the world, torn from the warm embrace of her mother’s womb, to a chaotic household that seems to have no place for her. Her siblings do not understand her, her mother’s attention is given to the Church, and the entire family lives at the whims of her father’s quick temper.
Left to herself, Mercy finds solace in books, her imagination, and the quiet comfort of her faithful toy, Dolly. But escapism has its limits, and as the grip of family, faith and fear threatens to close in, Mercy learns she must act if she wants a different future; one where she is seen and heard.’
