She is the author of two memoirs, Hungry for the World and In the Wilderness: Coming of Age in Unknown Country, which was a finalist for the 1997 Pulitzer Prize. In the Wilderness also was honored with a Pacific Northwest Booksellers Award and was a finalist for the PEN/Martha Albrand Award. In 1996, Barnes received the PEN/Jerard Fund Award for an emerging woman writer of nonfiction. She is co-editor of two anthologies: Circle of Women: An Anthology of Contemporary Western Women Writers, edited with Mary Clearman Blew, and Kiss Tomorrow Hello: Notes from the Midlife Underground by Twenty-Five Women Over Forty, edited with Claire Davis. Barnes’ essays, poems, and stories have appeared in a number of magazines and anthologies, including The Georgia Review, Shenandoah, and the Pushcart Prize anthology. Her first novel, Finding Caruso, was published by Marian Wood Books/Putnam. She is currently at work on a third novel set in Saudi Arabia as well as a collection of personal essays and a screenplay.
