Poisonwood Bible  — 

Loved the Poisonwood Bible. I read this book about 5 years ago it was the first novel that I'd read by this author and have since purchased two other novels by her.  I haven't come across another author who can describe landscape as beatuifully and vividly as she can.  I loved reading the slow decline into insanity by  the father and the coming of age of one of the daughters. This book was nearly a history book about the Congo and it political climate..
