PULITZER PRIZE WINNER NATIONAL BESTSELLER A "powerful and poignant" twentieth-century reimagining of Shakespeares King Lear (The New York Times Book Review) that takes on themes of truth, justice, love, and pride-and centers on a wealthy Iowa farmer who decides to divide his farm between his three daughters.When the youngest daughter objects, she is cut out of his will. This sets off a chain of events that brings dark truths to light and explodes long-suppressed emotions. Ambitiously conceived and stunningly written, A Thousand Acres reveals the beautiful yet treacherous topography of humanity.A family portrait that is also a near-epic investigation into the broad landscape, the thousand dark acres of the human heart.... The book has all the stark brutality of a Shakespearean tragedy. -The Washington Post Book World
