Poisonwood Bible
About This Novel
Pastor Price came to the Belgian Congo from the United States with his wife and four daughters, bringing seeds, cake mix and Bibles into the jungle full of poisonous trees. In the eyes of the priest, this place is a wild land full of souls in need of salvation. However, not only did he fail to save the "ignorant" natives, he instead dragged the family into a turbulent life full of crises. A tragedy came quietly. How long will they have to struggle in the jungle of life before they can move forward and step into the light? "The Poisonwood Bible" uses five women with different personalities as narrators to interweave the torrent of history with the subtleties of human nature. It is like a gorgeous and mysterious forest, beautiful, sad, and shocking.
