National Bestseller

“A blend of breathtaking artistry, encyclopedic knowledge of the natural world. . . and ardent commitment to the supremacy of nature.” — San Francisco Chronicle

In this beautiful novel, Barbara Kingsolver, acclaimed author of The Poisonwood Bible and the Pulitzer-Prize winning Demon Copperhead, and recipient of the National Book Foundation's Medal for Distinguish Contribution to American Letters, weaves together three stories of human love within a larger tapestry of lives inhabiting the forested mountains and struggling small farms of southern Appalachia.

Over the course of one humid summer, as the urge to procreate overtakes the lush countryside, this novel's intriguing protagonists—a reclusive wildlife biologist, a young farmer's wife marooned far from home, and a pair of elderly, feuding neighbors—face disparate predicaments but find connections to one another and to the flora and fauna with whom they necessarily share a place. Their discoveries are embedded inside countless intimate lessons of biology, the realities of small farming, and the final, urgent truth that humans are only one piece of life on earth.

Prodigal Summer is a hymn to wildness that celebrates the prodigal spirit of human nature, and of nature itself.

The three main storylines are woven together very well. Contains characters that get under your skin. I found the story wonderfully informative about the relationships within the ecosystem in which it is set. The story and what I learned stayed with me and I often think of it when I go walking in the woods.
I liked the softspoken narration of the author.

5 stars!

Greatly read captivating novel about the connections between all animals and nature. Barbara Kingsolver’s voice is very melodic and she brings this story to life. The recorded bird songs between the chapters are a great way of bringing the listening closer to the setting of the stories.
