Barbara Kingsolver's World
Nature, Art, and the Twenty-First Century, Revised EditionOne of the most insightful—and prolific—of American literary scholars, Linda Wagner-Martin here offers an excellent eco-critical reading of Barbara Kingsolver’s work, written in Wagner-Martin’s lucid, accessible prose. Focusing on what she calls ‘the reciprocity between the human and the natural,’ Wagner-Martin discusses natural elements even in those Kingsolver works—such as The Lacuna—that are usually viewed as political novels. She is especially good on Kingsolver’s new and ‘strangely foreboding’ Flight Behavior.
