DESCRIPTION

Winner of the 2004 Audie® Award

Yumi Fuller is a Japanese-American prodigal daughter returning home to the Idaho potato farm she ran away from twenty-five years earlier. Then a freewheeling hippie chick, Yumi (aka Yummy) is now a fairly responsible parent and a professor. But can she possibly be prepared to face her dying father, her Alzheimer’s-devastated mother, her former lover, and Cass, the best friend she left behind?

As she grapples with her conflicted past and uncertain future, Yumi collides with a rollicking band of environmentalists who see her parents’ potato farm as the ideal answer in their fight against genetic engineering.



REVIEWS

“Anna Fields’s reading is as accomplished as the storytelling; as audio experiences go, this is just about perfect.”—AudioFile

“Ozeki’s characters are utterly charming, and she writes with sensitivity and inventiveness about the complexities of love and nature, deftly humanizing the thorny issues raised by biotechnology with humor and panache in a tale rich in suspense and pathos.”—Booklist

“With her rich and sonorous voice, Fields...evokes the warmth and humor in Ozeki’s nuanced paean to the profusion of life and the healing power of loving care....a satisfying, funny, heart-warming novel.”—KLIATT

All Over Creation opens wider with every plot twist as it moves from tenderness to comedy to sobering truth and the whole world in the eye of one family’s storm.”—Barbara Kingsolver, best-selling author of The Bean Trees

“With a combination of humor and pathos that is all her own, Ozeki brings the American pastoral forward into the age of agribusiness and genetic engineering. The result is a smart and compelling novel about a world we don’t realize we live in.”—Michael Pollan, author of The Botany of Desire



RUTH OZEKI worked for more than a decade in television and film. Her documentary and dramatic films have been shown on PBS, at the Sundance film festival, and at colleges and universities across the country. She divides her time between New York City and British Columbia.
