A Country Called Home– Winner of the 2009 PEN Center USA Literary Award in Fiction!
From the author of the acclaimed memoir In the Wilderness comes a luminous novel, an extraordinary story of hope and idealism, madness and love, which is a testament to the power of family—the family we are born to and the family we create. It “feels like a classic…beautifully written with complex, flawed characters and an unpredictable and fascinating plot. An engrossing, sometimes heartbreaking read with a leavening of hopefulness…not to be missed." -Bookreporter
