WHAT A CHARACTER

Leah from "The Poisonwood Bible" is a character that has stood out to me from the literature I have recently read. She is definitely a dynamic character, as the readers watch her grow she matures and loses faith in her father. So essentially does a complete 180 from her original obedient self. Leah is memorable because of her metamorphosis. A character is always more interesting and relatable when readers get an insight to why they have the personality or values they do. Through indirect characterization, the author did just that. Besides her character being believable, she also was inspirational. Out of the four sisters, Leah is the only one who stayed in Africa and took on its problems as her own.
