About this book

Nathan Price takes his wife and four daughters to the Belgian Congo on a Baptist mission in 1959. Told through the women in the family, the novel examines what happens when their assumptions about faith and everyday life meet unfamiliar conditions. Their experiences unfold against the region's political changes, connecting private family tensions with postcolonial history.
