Twenty-five years later, the prodigal daughter returns to confront her dying parents, her best friend, and her conflicted past, and finds herself caught up in an altogether new drama. The post-millennial farming community has been invaded by Agribusiness forces at war with a posse of activists, the Seeds of Resistance, who travel the country in a camping car, “The Spudnick,” biofueled by pilfered McDonald’s french-fry oil. Following her widely hailed, award-winning debut novel, \u003ci\u003eMy Year of Meats\u003c\/i\u003e, Ruth Ozeki returns here to deliver a quirky cast of characters and a wickedly humorous appreciation of the foibles of corporate life, globalization, political resistance, youth culture, and aging baby boomers. \u003ci\u003eAll Over Creation\u003c\/i\u003e tells a celebratory tale of the beauty of seeds, roots, and growth—and the capacity for renewal that resides within us all.\u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAll Over Creation\u003c\/i\u003e 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.
