WORTH CONSUMING!

Barbara Kingsolver is a lyrical writer with a musical voice. This book is a treat to listen to as an audio book. Listening to her read makes me at once sad, elated, quiet, and humble.

Here’s a beautiful quote from the first chapter:
“God is in the details, the completely unnecessary miracles some tossed up as stars to guide us. They are the promise of fortune in a cloudless day, and the animals in the clouds; look hard enough, and you’ll see them. Don’t ask if they’re real.”

Beautiful essays, lovingly crafted, full of the usual passion and personality. As an added bonus, I listened to this as a book-on-tape with the author reading it. Not all writers are good readers, but she is an exception.
