Not my favorite Kingsolver book. A bit plodding - it should have been shortened up quite a bit. And it needed more of a plot line - a reason to keep picking it up. It was just the protagonist's life. There were multiple crises, but I just didn't care about any of it.
And the final crisis in front of the HUAC, was almost predictable from the early stages of the book. And again, I was just irritated.
For a character that lived through such interesting times, his life story left me flat.
I'm still a Kingsolver fan, and I have high hopes for her next effort.
