 by Barbara Kingsolver Book Description from Amazon.com: Prodigal Summer weaves together three stories of human love within a larger tapestry of lives inhabiting the forested mountains and struggling small farms of southern Appalachia. At the heart of these intertwined narratives is a den of coyotes that have recently migrated into the region...
Over the course of one humid summer, as the urge to procreate overtakes a green and profligate
countryside, [the] characters find connections to one another and to the flora and fauna with which
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 part of life on
earth.
