Book Review of A Lesson Before Dying

A Lesson Before Dying
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 2


This is a well-written story about a man who is falsely committed for a crime and a teacher who is asked to visit him. The relationships in the book are unique, but I'm guessing they reflect those from Louisiana during that time. It is a profound and engaging story- I recommend to people who likes The Color Purple or Beloved.
