All over creation

Summary: Yumi Fuller hasn't set foot in her hometown of Liberty Falls, Idaho -- heart of the potato-farming industry -- since she ran away at age fifteen. 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 a brand new drama. The post-millenial farming community has been invaded by Agribusiness forces at war with a posse of activists who travel the country in a camping car biofueled by pilfered McDonald's french-fry oil. With 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, this tells a celebratory tale of the beauty of seeds and growing things, and the capacity for renewal that resides within us all.
