Flight Behavior by Barbara Kingsolver

Flight Behavior by Barbara Kingsolver
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Dellarobia is running away from her circumscribed life when she witnesses a miracle in the forest - thousands of butterflies have roosted in a southern Tennessee valley. She tells no one, but the butterflies change her life. Dellarobia becomes involved with the inevitable researchers who arrive as land lady and lab assistant.

This is the best book I have read this year. There is happiness and sadness, hope and despair. Kingsolver explores the effect of living in small rural communities; and how polarized segments of our society are.
