In Ruth Ozeki's 2003 novel, All Over Creation, Yumi Fuller, a Japanese-American woman, returns home to care for her aging parents in Liberty Falls, Idaho. Having left at 14 due to a strained relationship with her conservative father, a successful potato farmer, Yumi now faces a return to the familiar yet stifling environment.

This homecoming reignites old tensions, particularly around her father's rigid views on agriculture and his opposition to genetically modified (GMO) foods. While Yumi's mother, Momoko, finds solace in heirloom seeds, Yumi grapples with family dynamics and questions her own cultural identity.

The story unfolds beyond family drama. It delves into the ethics of genetic modification in the food industry, with Yumi caught between her father's traditional methods and the controversy surrounding GMOs. Ozeki infuses the narrative with a touch of magical realism, where some characters, like Yumi's daughter who talks to animals, possess unusual abilities.

All Over Creation is a thought-provoking blend of humor, quirky characters, and contemporary issues. Here's why you should dive into this novel:

  • A Multifaceted Story: Explore themes of family reconciliation, cultural identity, environmental responsibility, and the ethics of GMOs, all woven into a captivating narrative.
  • Unforgettable Characters: Ozeki brings to life a cast of characters, each with their own quirks and stories, that will stay with you long after the last page.
  • Humor and Heart: The novel skillfully balances humor with moments of genuine tenderness, creating a rich reading experience.
  • Food for Thought: All Over Creation challenges readers to consider the complex issues surrounding food production and genetic modification in a relatable way.
  • A Touch of Magic: The magical realist elements add a unique layer to the story, making it even more engaging.
