Produktbeschreibung

"A revised critique of Kingsolver's writing, from her first novel, The Bean Trees, through Flight Behavior, including her non-fiction and poetry, emphasizing her interest in ecological matters as well as feminist themes. Author of the only biography of Barbara Kingsolver and of a reader's guide to The Poisonwood Bible, Wagner-Martin has become the leading authority on this Pulitzer-prize-wining author. Here she covers every work in Kingsolver's oeuvre, emphasizing the writer's blend of the scientific method in which she was formally trained with her convincing understanding of the human characters that fill her books"--
