Flight Behaviour

I enjoyed Flight Behaviour by Barbara Kingsolver which is set in a mountain region in USA where the people generally have low aspirations.  Dellarobia one day decides to throw away her unsatisfactory family life and "escape" but she is dazzled to find Monarch butterflies on her family property.  At first she doesn't know what they are but later the butterflies' unexpected appearance in this region becomes news and scientists and "greenies" descend on her property.  Dellarobia and her husband Cub have two small children, but Dellarobia wants more from life.  The community is divided about the butterflies and their impact.  The story of Dellarobia's life is told against the background of the case for global warming.  Very well written. 4/5
