Although it calls itself a "parody" (for legal reasons, I imagine) this is not a humorous book. It is more the flip side to the saccharine romantisim of the original "classic". I much prefer this version. Her expressions cut to the heart and make one remember the horrible history of the south and experience the beauty of a free soul. Truly a story to enlighten those of us who take it all for granted.
