The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver
This is an amazing story, certainly one of my favourites, exploring a missionary family's life. The American family is made up of four sisters and their parents. Most of the novel is set in Africa and each character deals with their situation in an entirely different way. The reader receives multiple perspectives. The book describes the culture extremely well and is clearly well researched. It is very moving and appears realistic. Favourite read of 2010.
