Bean Tree Green
General Fiction豆树青青
(usa) Barbara Kingsolver
If there is anything in this world that Taylor wants least, it is the fate of getting married early and having children. But on the way away from home, someone forced a little girl on her, and she was confused and carried this "burden"; Lu Ann's husband suddenly vacated half of the house and left without saying goodbye... Two girls who were unsure about their future became roommates by chance. Life gives us "unexpected" and "no room left", and gives us poverty and richness. This is a story about love and friendship, adventure and commitment, abandonment and belonging, and the discovery of amazing wealth where there seems to be nothing. An unmissable book about love, friendship and growth. Like bean trees, growing quietly in the desert. I know the world is full of hardship and injustice, but I still have to do my best to be with you.
