Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: A Year of Food Life (P.S.)
by Harper Perennial (Paperback) (Release Date: 2008-04-29)
Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: A Year of Food Life (P.S.)
Author Barbara Kingsolver and her family abandoned the industrial-food pipeline to live a rural life—vowing that, for one year, they’d 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.
