This is currently one of the best books I've read.
It's set in Africa in the 60s -- a missionary father takes his wife & 4 daughters to the Congo. The story details their lives there & after they leave. It is funny, touching, heartbreaking and gives a great snapshot of region's turmoil, based on real history.
Barbara Kingsolver always has strong themes of family and nature.
