Review of "The Help"
by Roger on Wed 18th Aug 2010.
Written in three voices (maids Aibleen and Minny and the autor Skeeter) very engrosing and absorbing story. Paints a clear picture of life both as a maid and also as an independent minded person growing in a stifling environment of friends and conventional expectations and not knowing what to want.
