((Mother of Pearl is a monumental novel set in the noble-speaking back country of Faulkner,s Mississippi.In a luminuos voice,original and true,MelindaHaynes tells the story,straight as a tree and deep as a pond,of the savage miseries and saving graces of the past and present in the deep south.This is an unforgettable,heart-bending book.I haven,t read this book but it sounds like it would be good.
