The Poisonwood Bible
by Barbara Kingsolver
The Poisonwood Bible is a
story told by the wife and four daughters of Nathan Price, a fierce,
evangelical Baptist who takes his family and mission to the Belgian Congo in
1959. They carry with them everything they believe they will need from home,
but soon find that all of it -- from garden seeds to Scripture -- is
calamitously transformed on African soil. What follows is a suspenseful epic of
one family's tragic undoing and remarkable reconstruction over the course of
three decades in postcolonial Africa.This P.S. edition features an extra 16
pages of insights into the book, including author interviews, recommended
reading, and more.
