Reviews
"The work of a visionary. . . . It leaves you open-mouthed and smiling." -- Los Angeles Times "As clear as air. It is the southern novel taken west, its colors as translucent and polished as one of those slices of rose agate from a desert shop." -- New York Times Book Review "An extraordinary good novel, tough and tender and gritty and moving." -- Anne Rivers Siddons "So wry and wise we wish it would never end....The chatty, down-home audacity of Barbara Kingsolver's remarkable first novel hooks us on the first page." -- San Francisco Chronicle "The Bean Trees is the work of a visionary. . . . It leaves you open-mouthed and smiling." -- Los Angeles Times "A major new talent. From the very first page, Kingsolver's characters tug at the heart and soul." -- Ms. "An astonishing literary debut....For a deep breath of fresh air, spend some time in the neighborhood of The Bean Trees." -- Cosmopolitan "Idealistic and exhilerating, The Bean Trees is a book that combines the most careful craft with a moral code that is loving and expansive." -- Philadelphia Inquirer "This is the story of a lovable, resourceful 'instant mother,' one who speaks, acts and learns for herself, becoming an inspiration to us all." -- Glamour "This funny, inspiring book is a marvelous affirmation of risk-taking, commitment and everyday miracles...An overwhelming delight, as random and unexpected as real life." -- Publishers Weekly "A lively first novel...an easy book to enjoy." -- No Source

  • Heartwarming, wonderful read

    I read Pigs In Heaven prior to this with the former being the first in the sagas of Taylor and Turtle Greer. So enjoyable, both The Bean Trees AND Pigs In Heaven are on my "love these books" list. The Poisonwood Bible I read when it first came out and until recently hadn't read any other Kingsolver novels but these two make your heart and soul fill with tenderness for the characters. I adore the way this author "talks" - her characters becoming so real. Thanks for the opportunity to voice my opinion - I hope you choose to read at least THE BEAN TREES - once you do you'll look for PIGS IN HEAVEN as quickly as you can! ENJOY!

  • Just try to put it down. I dare you.

    I read this book every couple of years or so. First off, Ms. Kingsolver is a constant favorite of mine. I love the way she crafts her words so you don't want to put the book down. But this book is a must read for anyone who has never experienced the Kingsolver world. I was living in Tucson when I first read this book and that made me warm to it up front. Then, as I read, I loved the woman, the child and the story. Go with her as she adopts an abandoned American Native child in the middle of the southwest and starts her life with that child who does not speak. Stay with her through the next story as well. You will not be sorry. I bought this copy to give it away to a friend.

  • Love this book and the sequel!

    I read "Pigs In Heaven" first and loved it! When I found out it was a sequel I had to read "The Bean Trees" and was not disappointed. I hated for their story to end!
