Final answer:

The Price family in The Poisonwood Bible moves to Kilanga from Georgia. This historical fiction is written by Barbara Kingsolver, not Alice Walker, who provided a quote on the nostalgia of Southern relatives regarding their past.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the novel The Poisonwood Bible, the Price family relocates to Kilanga in the Belgian Congo from the U.S. state of Georgia. This details the family's struggles and experiences living in a different culture and environment. The Poisonwood Bible is a work of historical fiction by the American author Barbara Kingsolver, not Alice Walker.

However, Alice Walker's quote about Southern relatives who experienced nostalgia upon being introduced to a book detailing Southern life captures a similar theme of the connection to one's homeland and the experience of living in a foreign culture as depicted in Kingsolver's novel.
