Description: Barbara Kingsolver's books have sold millions of copies. The Poisonwood Bible was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize, and her work is studied in courses ranging from English-as-a-second-language classes to seminars in doctoral programs. Yet, until now, there has been relatively little scholarly analysis of her writings.

Seeds of Change: Critical Essays on Barbara Kingsolver, edited by Priscilla Leder, is the first collection of essays examining the full range of Kingsolver's literary output. The articles in this groundbreaking volume provide analysis, context, and commentary on all of Kingsolver's novels, her poetry, her two essay collections, and her memoir, Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: A Year of Food Life.

Fully indexed with a comprehensive works-cited section, Seeds of Change offers important insights and analysis that will deepen and broaden readers' understanding and experience of Barbara Kingsolver's work.
