Synopsis
Taylor Greer, from rural Kentucky, buys a 1955 Volkswagen and drives west. Along the way, she picks up an abandoned 3-year-old Native American girl named Turtle, and by the time she pulls up at the Jesus Is Lord Used Tire Auto Repair Shop, Taylor is well on her way towards establishing an adventurous new life in the desert land of the Southwest.

Publisher's Note
Clear-eyed and spirited, Taylor Greer grew up poor in rural Kentucky with the goals of avoiding pregnancy and getting away. But when she heads west with high hopes and a barely functional car, she meets the human condition head-on. By the time Taylor arrives in Tucson, Arizona, she has acquired a completely unexpected child, a three-year-old American Indian girl named Turtle, and must somehow come to terms with both motherhood and the necessity for putting down roots. Hers is a story about love and friendship, abandonment and belonging, and the discovery of surprising resources in apparently empty places. Available for the first time in mass-market, this edition of Barbara Kingsolver's bestselling novel, The Bean Trees, will be in stores everywhere in September. With two different but equally handsome covers, this book is a fine addition to your Kingsolver library.
For those readers who have not yet fallen under the spell of Kingsolver's storytelling magic, here is her most popular and bestselling novel in its first-ever mass market edition. It is the story about love and friendship, abandonment and belonging, and the discovery of surprising resources in apparently empty places.

Industry reviews
"An extraordinarily good first novel, tough and tender and gritty and moving, with a wonderful particularity and taut Southwestern bite. Kingsolver's heroine is little short of magnificent."
Book Jacket - Anne Rivers Siddons 

"So wry and wise we wish it would never end....The chatty, down-home audacity of Barbara Kingsolver's remarkable first novel hooks us on the first page."
San Francisco Chronicle - Patricia Holt 

"'The Bean Trees' is a story propelled by a marvellous ear, a fast-moving humor and the powerful undercurrent of human struggle....There are surprises in the book. There is adventure. and there is resolution, as believable as it is gratifying...."
Women's Review of Books - Margaret Randall
