For the first time in mass-market paperback, this bestseller is a sequel to "Bean Trees." Six-year-old Turtle Greer witnesses a freak accident at the Hoover Dam, leading to a man's dramatic rescue. But Turtle's moment of celebrity draws everyone around her in a complex web connecting their futures with their pasts.

"Possessed of an extravagantly gifted narrative voice, she blends a fierce and abiding moral vision with benevolent, concise humor. Her medicine is meant for the head, the heart and the soul--and it does down dangerously, blissfully, easily.

Karen Karbo, New York Times Book Review, 06/27/1993

"With 'Pigs in Heaven', Kingsolver takes a risk she hasn't taken before: she challenges her own strong, '60s-style politics by pitting its cultural correctness against the boundless love between a mother and child. For all its political dimensions, this is no polemic but a complex drama in which heroes and villains play each other's parts--and learn from them."

Laura Shapiro, Newsweek, 07/11/1993
