 Barbara Kingsolver's art is creating female mavericks who turn up in novels like The Poisonwood Bible, The Bean Trees and Prodigal Summer. My fascination for The Poisonwood Bible stems from marrying into a family of missionaries who spent a quarter century in the heart of mainland China.
Like my family, the Prices in the Poisonwood Bible are missionaries. Their story is set in the Congo and teems with wildebeest and unrest during the time of Patrice Lamumba. Kingsolver tells and retells events through the eyes of the four Price daughters. The daughters portray how differently children view family commitments and act forever after on those views.
