Synopsis:

_A tribute to the power of love and the forces of nature . . . As with all her work, one is left with a vivid and permanent impression of a small but magical place._ Kate Figes, IndependentFrom the author of the internationally bestselling Poisonwood Bible comes this passionate story of three people from an Appalachian farming community whose lives are profoundly changed over the course of one summer. Deanna, a reclusive forest ranger, is caught off guard by a young hunter, and must decide whether to sacrifice her solitary life for love. Lusa, left widowed by a terrible accident after only a year of marriage, discovers the possibilities in the acres which her husband left to her. And Garnett, drawn into a dispute with his provocative neighbour who is trying to start an environmental revolution on her farm. As their three stories become intertwined, these characters find not only their connections to each other but a sense of the beautiful yet fragile land which they share._A tightly-woven story of passion, fear and conviction . . . An abundant work, lyrical yet unsentimental in its description of insects, animals and landscape and equally giving towards its human cast. It is a stretching, intelligent, questioning work whose operatic mood fits the escalating crisis faced in our destructive era._ Rosemary Goring, Sunday Herald_Prodigal Summer tells of adversity and hope, loss and recovery _ the things that, gracefully and bravely negotiated, give shape and beauty to lives that seem damaged or distorted._ Jane Shilling, The Times_Wonderful._ John Harding, Daily Mail
