Almost every book club on the Island has probably read at least one work by Barbara Kingsolver. She has been enriching American literature since “The Bean Trees” was published in 1988. Kingsolver is a national treasure, authoring short stories, fiction, poetry, essays and history. She has won several literary prizes, including the 2010 Orange Award for Fiction for her
sixth novel, “The Lacuna.” No surprise, then,
that Vashon College chose “The Lacuna” as its “Vashon Reads” summer book.
