Short Review: a good intertwining story of three people in rural Kentucky that find the situations changed and their previous independence no longer appropriate. They now have to learn how to relate differently to those around them. Because it is Kingsolver there are all kinds of metaphors to do with the environment and evolution and natural selection and that all fits well with the story. But this is the most traditional story of the Kingsolver books i have read. I would almost call it literary romance, but that isn't really quite right. It is more of a book on starting over with romance being one of the options of how to start over.
