Notes From Your Bookseller
Determined to convert the people of the Congo to Christianity, Nathan Price and his family set off for Africa not knowing what awaits them in Barbara Kingsolver’s sweeping and unforgettable family saga told through the perspectives of a mother and her four daughters.
Kingsolver's national bestseller paints an intimate portrait of a crisis-ridden family amid the larger backdrop of an African nation in chaos. Examine how the tragedy of the Price family mirrors the political unrest in the Congo, how the novel views religion and marriage, and how Kingsolver reconciles the demands of art with her belief that writing should support a political cause.
