Kingsolver’s latest book is a hard read, but the thread of hope appears and buries itself so realistically. Copperhead, the main character, exemplifies the hope she speaks of in this interview, without the giddiness of optimism yet the energy of going forward...two steps forward, then backwards! How she draws community into the picture supports her belief in our interdependence. Thanks for quoting this today.
Faith keeps me hopeful :)

What's the book title? (BTW, one of my friends is fond of saying, "Ever forward, never straight.")
Diamond Copperhead is the title.
Thanks!
