520 |a At the heart of human existence is erotic desire. This erotic desire lurks behind the scenes in Marilynne Robinson’s Jack. In the fourth volume of Marilynne Robinson’s quartet that centers around Gilead, Iowa, the character Jack takes center stage. He has haunted the background in many of the subsequent novels, but in Jack, one encounters his own thoughts and predilections. The main narrative is structured around his interracial marriage with Della. This paper utilizes Willie James Jennings’s discussion of the erotic and Jean-Luc Marion’s erotic reduction to analyze the relationship between Della and Jack. Jack awakens to the meaning and purpose in life by being loved by another which makes him realize his own capability to love.
