Virtual: Third Tuesday Night Book Club
This book club will be held virtually, hosted by Washington County Library. This month's selection is The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver.
Summary: The Poisonwood Bible is a story told by the wife and four daughters of Nathan Price, a fierce evangelical Baptist who takes his family and mission to the Belgian Congo in 1959. They carry with them all they believe they will need from home, but soon find that all of it - from garden seeds to Scripture - is calamitously transformed on African soil.
You are welcome to join with the group in the discussion about this month’s selection! Please contact Melody to send you a Zoom invitation to the meeting and to assist you in finding a copy of the book if you would like to read or listen to. Thank you!
