Barbara Kingsolver has definitely appealed to my two great interests – thirst for reading and love for predators. Kingsolver’s impeccable knowledge of the biological behavior of organisms added considerable value to her words and transformed the novel from a mere story that is fascinating to readers to a valuable message delivered heart to heart. The novel took me back to my days spent enjoying the safari in Tanzania, free from the norms of the civilized world and spending time attuned to the rhythm of nature. This is my debut into the beautiful world written by Kingsolver and I really enjoyed my short trip to the wild Appalachia painted in detail by the author’s love for anything living. Anyone who has a small space reserved in their hearts for the indelible beauty of nature cannot stop themselves from loving this novel. Published in the year 2000, Prodigal Summer, the fifth novel of Barbara Kingsolver is all about going back to nature and embracing the wilderness.
