    What Barbara Kingsolver Is Reading (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Barbara Kingsolver’s books have been everywhere since the nineties: your neighbor’s bookshelf, your college lounge, your grandmother’s coffee table, your schoolteacher’s desk, every lake house in the Lower Forty-eight. Kingsolver clawed her way onto the best-seller lists with her third novel, “Pigs in Heaven” (1993), but she started camping out there for months at a time with “The Poisonwood Bible” (1998), her epic about an American missionary family’s experiences in revolutionary Congo.

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Everything is watching you. The snakes, of course, along with the birds, bears, turtles, fish, rabbits, and horses. Also: the tables, the chairs, the bridges, the tents, the rocks, the plants, the trees, the trucks, the boats, and even the fires.
