Excellent read! Told from the perspective of Lily, a fourteen year old girl, "The Secret Life of Bees" raises the subject of racism in the South in the early days of the civil rights movement. Lily reminds all of us of how the world should be viewed when we're not tainted by the society...I also have a deeper and better understanding about bees and how they can sometime relate to human life.
