COPY LINK URL ON DESCRIPTION

bIn an /bb 8220 eye-opening memoir 8221 (iPeople/i)/bb 8220

as beautiful as it is discomfiting 8221 (iThe New Yorker/i),

award-winning writer Apricot Irving untangles her youth on a

missionary compound in Haiti./bApricot Irving grew up as a

missionary 8217 s daughter in Haiti. Her father was an

agronomist, a man who hiked alone into the deforested hills to

preach the gospel of trees. Her mother and sisters spent their

days in the confines of the hospital compound they called

home. As a child, this felt like paradise to Irving as a teenager,

it became a prison. Outside of the walls of the missionary

enclave, Haiti was a tumult of bugle-call bus horns and

bicycles that jangled over hard-packed dirt, road blocks and

burning tires triggered by political upheaval, the clatter of rain

across tin roofs, and the swell of voices running ahead of the

storm. Poignant and explosive, Irving weaves a portrait of a

missionary family that is unflinchingly honest: her father 8217 s

unswerving commitment to his mission, her mother 8217 s

misgivings about his loyalty, the brutal history of colonization.

Drawing from research, interviews, and journals 8212 her

parents 8217 as well as her own 8212 this memoir in many

voices evokes a fractured family finding their way to kindness

through honesty. Told against the backdrop of Haiti 8217 s

long history of intervention, it grapples with the complicated

legacy of those who wish to improve the world, while bearing

witness to the defiant beauty of an undefeated country. A

lyrical meditation on trees and why they matter, loss and

privilege, love and failure. The Gospel of Trees is a 8220 lush,

emotional debut A beautiful memoir that shows how a family

altered by its own ambitious philanthropy might ultimately find

hope in their faith and love for each other, and for Haiti. 8221
