    About this ebook

    The author of the New York Times bestselling books The Lacuna, Flight Behavior, and The Poisonwood Bible Barbara Kingsolver returns with a novel that interweaves the past and present. In Unsheltered, Kingsolver explores the human capacity for compassion and resilience in the midst of upheaval. Unsheltered is the timely novel about the story of two families in two centuries. They lived in New Jersey, at the corner of Sixth and Plum in Vineland. They navigated what seemed to be the end of the world as they had known it. With history as their backdrop, Kingsolver’s characters paint a startlingly relevant portrait of life during precarious times that the foundations of the past have failed to prepare everyone for the future.
