Críticas
Breathtaking. (Sunday Times)
A book club classic . . . There is humour, history, love and loss. (The Times)
A brilliantly realised epic of one family's journey to the heart of darkness. (Independent)
An updated, dysfunctional version of Louisa May Alcott's Little Women . . . it pours forth ideas about good and evil, civilization and savagery, and the unlikely nature of redemption. (Sunday Times)
Provocative and affecting . . . illustrates how profoundly both women and the world have changed. (Claire Messud)
Soaringly panoramic... the jungle throbs with life and death - every aspect unnervingly convincing. (Julie Myerson)
Funny, terrifying and heartbreaking. (Mail on Sunday)
What triumphs is Kingsolver's gentle good humour, the ingenuity of the strong women characters and a universal human spirit . . . The Poisonwood Bible ranks with the most ambitious works of post-colonial literature and it should establish Kingsolver's reputation as one of America's most gifted novelists. (Gavin Essler Independent on Sunday)
