Barbara Kingsolver has finally announced the release date for her newest novel, Unsheltered.

Kingsolver posted to Facebook and her online website (http://www.kingsolver.com/) that her novel will be available in stores on October 16, 2018. She also suggested to keep checking for news regarding a book tour, the description of the book, along with the backstory - something that makes Kingsolver's novels different from the rest. For each book she's written, Kingsolver ties her personal experiences to those her characters face in her stories. Readers and fans of Kingsolver's are hoping to learn what the author has been up to or uncover what she has been through in the past while reading her new book.

In 2015, Kingsolver stated in an interview that she was working on movie adaptations of The Poisonwood Bible and Prodigal Summer. She has been working on the script and trying to find people to produce these films, and guessed they would be out in a few years, which should be soon. There are still updates needed to be given on these, but unlikely that she has given up on such projects. 2018 and 2019 should be successful years for Kingsolver.
