The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver tells the story of the Price family—Nathan Price, a rigid evangelical missionary, and his wife and four daughters—who relocate from the United States to the Belgian Congo in 1959 for a mission trip. Narrated by Orleanna (the mother) and her daughters Leah, Rachel, Adah, and Ruth May, the novel explores their family's tragic unraveling amidst cultural clashes, political upheaval, and the complexities of colonialism in post-colonial Africa. The story focuses on themes of cultural arrogance, the impact of Western views on other cultures, faith, abuse of authority, and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of loss and trauma.
