Ìý The Poisonwood Bible (1998) by Barbara Kingsolver Ìý

In 1959 Nathan Price, a bullying Baptist missionary, takes his wife and four daughters to the Belgian Congo. They are completely unprepared for the life they find there.

Nathan Price is a man who knows no doubt and the effects of his actions are told through the testimony of his four daughters.

The Poisonwood Bible was a huge success largely due to Oprah Winfrey's book club which opened it up to a wider audience.
