Feel the quiet pulse of connection that beats beneath the surface of everyday life in this luminous collection by Barbara Kingsolver. Step into kitchens where unspoken histories simmer with the evening meal, walk through fields heavy with memory, and travel to distant corners where the search for belonging mirrors journeys of the heart. Kingsolver’s prose breathes life into characters you’ll recognize instinctively—individuals grappling with love’s complexities, the ache of displacement, the weight of family ties, and the quiet epiphanies that arrive in unexpected moments. These twelve stories shimmer with empathy, illuminating the extraordinary beauty and resilience found within ordinary lives and mapping the intricate ways we seek, lose, and ultimately find our way home.
