So says Loyd Peregrina, a handsome Apache trainman and latter-day philosopher. But when Codi Noline returns to her hometown, Loyd's advice is painfully out of her reach. Dreamless and at the end of her rope, Codi comes back to Grace, Arizona to confront her past and face her ailing, distant father. What the finds is a town threatened by a silent environmental catastrophe, some startling clues to her own identity, and a man whose view of the world could change the course of her life. Blending flashbacks, dreams, and Native American legends, Animal Dreams is a suspenseful love story and a moving exploration of life's largest commitments. With this work, the acclaimed author of The Bean Trees and Homeland and Other Stories sustains her familiar voice while giving readers her most remarkable book yet.

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Terrible Book
This is, unequivocally, one of the most boring books I've ever read. Makes Hemmingway look exciting...



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Another Favorite~
Read this on vacation in Hawaii. The single most important book that has changed my outlook on life, friendship and sisterhood.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Poetic
I am not a fan of poetry, but I enjoy the poetic way Barbara Kinsolver writes about nature, life, relationships and family. This is a thought provoking novel, touching and real.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Incredible-vivid
