Part of that was probably due to the fact that when I first read it, I was living in Africa with four young children.<br />I have to say that Kingsolver knows how to cut where it hurts...Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14141877537334176841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8311151968716514867.post-58231155983559740032010-03-16T09:13:20.574-07:002010-03-16T09:13:20.574-07:00Loaned someone my copy of Lacuna (a gift!) before ...Loaned someone my copy of Lacuna (a gift!) before I'd read it (so not like me).<br />Must get it back!Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14110235078325434919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8311151968716514867.post-84625869879404453102010-03-16T07:48:22.976-07:002010-03-16T07:48:22.976-07:00Oh, I completely agree except for one thing. The ...Oh, I completely agree except for one thing. The ending was brilliant. I anticipate a new Kingsolver novel like a kid waits for Christmas. But I really wasn't crazy about this one over all.
