Description

Returning to her troubled hometown, Codi Noline finds herself confronting not only her father's declining health but also the ghosts of her own past. As she navigates a complex relationship and the tragic fate of her sister abroad, Codi uncovers a sinister plot by a mining company to poison the land she calls home. Through alternating perspectives, the novel explores themes of family, environmental justice, and the search for self amidst the stark beauty of the American Southwest. Barbara Kingsolver masterfully weaves a narrative rich with emotional depth and cultural resonance, offering a poignant reflection on healing and resilience.
