The Poisonwood Bible

by Barbara Kingsolver | Buy this book

I love this book for its raw, winding storytelling, its fantastic narrative voice and the rich historical backdrop of the Congo. Kingsolver is truly a master of words!

Reg (London)

I am a 91-year-olda man. I had a story to tell, and no one to tell it to, therefore I wrote it as a book using an imaginary family. I am a veteran of the Air Force, who was only seven when the www11 began. I came from the Eastend near the docks of London, a poor family and poor education. I learned the hard way from books recovered from bombed-out houses and shops sold them on. There is little more I can say.
