This debut novel by southerner Kathryn Stockett is a beautifully written story of three women, who for their own reasons join together to tell stories of what its like to work as a maid for white women in the 1960's during the Civil Rights Movement. There is so much to this story besides the obvious and i recommend it highly as I'm sure it will be a favorite of book lovers. You can read my full review here.
