Pigs in Heaven Heaven for Readers

by   kentmom ,  Jul 24, 2005
Pros: Good story told exceptionally well.

One Little Indian Girl

by   ArnieHarris ,  Jan 27, 2001
Pros: Poignant, funny, meaningful story, written in Kingsolver's unique, poetic style.

In a story brimming with off-beat humor, poignance, and powerful insights into human foibles,...
