State of Wonder

Title: State of Wonder
Author: Ann Patchett

The story of a woman who is sent to the Amazon jungle by the pharmaceutical company she works at after her fellow worker Anders mysteriously dies there while checking on the progress of the fertility drug they are working on. Dr. Swenson has been in the Amazon for many years and has cut off contact with Vogel, the pharmaceutical company. The story tells of the woman's (Marina) struggle to find Dr. Swenson and her life in the jungle when she finally does. I found the story that develops to be quite interesting and very descriptive. And there is a surprise ending.

Fiction; rated 4 out of 5.
