Abstract
Barbara Kingsolver has been acclaimed as an eco-friendly writer and her extensive education in biology is on display bin her book Prodigal Summer, laden with ecological concept and biological facts, weaving together three stories of human life. Each chapter in the novel Prodigal Summer deals with the three main characters and are named "Predators", "Moth Love", "Old Vhestnuts". In this novel the reader learns about animals, insects, forests, and the intertwining ecological system in which they coexist in the lush Appalachian Mountains or by living on a family farm in Kentucky. Even though humans are a different species than coyotes and moths and trees, feels Kingsolver, all deserve a place in the world since they depend on each other for different functions.
