​Through poignant depictions, Wright captures how [14-year-old] Faith’s intelligence and scientific gifts are squelched by the defined gender roles of nineteenth-century society….Through shifts in tone, Wright communicates Faith’s increased confidence as well as her horror at the tree’s power. As narrator, Wright dazzles with her character portrayals and propels listeners through this gripping story.
