Reviews

Rather than a reader's guide that connects events in Kingsolver's life and novels, Houston (American literature, California State U., Chico) and Warren (an English master's program student at that campus) present a guide that focuses mainly on an analysis of her writings through 2009 minus poems and most nonfiction: novels, a collection of short stories, and the nonfiction Animal, Vegetable, Miracle (2007). They characterize her as a Western/ Southwestern and ecofeminist writer. The guide includes interview and critical snippets; discussion questions; and a bibliographical essay listing books that Kingsolver reads as well as works not covered in the guide and ecofeminist titles by other authors.
