This is an amazing book. I absolutely loved it, and was hooked by the end of page one. Spanning well across mid century history and two wars, this story of mainly woman characters in the south has both old fashioned charm, sweetness and the irrepairable disasterous results of bad life decisions. It is the kind of book that will make you cringe as you can tell hardship is coming, and laugh out loud at it's blunt true to life wierdness.

Dealing with everything from rape and murder, poverty, sucicide attempts, infidelity, childbirth, (lots of childbirth) and the horror of war, it flows from one woman's story to the other in the most believable gripping fashion an excellent novel offers.
