Description: Author Barbara Kingsolver and her family abandoned the industrial-food pipeline to live a rural lifevowing that, for one year, theyd only buy food raised in their own neighborhood, grow it themselves, or learn to live without it. Part memoir, part journalistic investigation, Animal, Vegetable, Miracle is an enthralling narrative that will open your eyes in a hundred new ways to an old truth: You are what you eat. The book, published in 2008 by HarperCollins, is a 400-page trade paperback that measures 8 inches tall, 5.3 inches wide, and 0.9 inches thick. The book is written in English and is intended for adults or young adults. It covers a range of topics including sustainable living, organic farming, personal memoirs, raising and harvesting food animals, horticulture, food policy, community, and life in Appalachia. The book is a compelling memoir about food, sustainability, and community. My husband ordered this book without realizing I had already read it/have a copy on my bookshelf. It's never been opened and is brand new, but it came with a tiny bit of wear on the rear upper to corner and at the edge of the over (see pics where I've circled these areas in red).
