A real page turner. The author authentically captures the race tensions in the South during the civil rights era.
Made me think about that time in my life July 28, 2010

I am really enjoying this book. I was in an all white high school at this time in Decatur, GA and this is how I remember the "colored" ladies talking (but more "aint" in their language than in the book). We never saw or knew any "colored" people except those who worked for our families as maids and yardmen. We loved them but did not understand the "line" we were not to cross. Most of us were totally ignorant and thought the colored people had their own place where we were not allowed to go! We wanted to sit in the back of the bus but it was reserved for the colored people. How ironic.........friends later told me the same thing, they thought we were not allowed in the balcony of the movies because it was reserved for the colored people. No one in our families ever talked about the plight of the black people. I actually had never met an educated black person until I started to work at in a hospital in 1970.
I thought it was both absorbing and interesting.
It is a book of fiction; so, dont get your dander up. Read something else if this one offends you.

I read this from theibrary and it is so good that I had to own my very own copy! It is a facinating story about what women do to other less fortunate women.
