A Compulsive Page-Turner

It is an amazing novel, a modern classic which can in all aspects be compared to writings of HarperLee"To Kill a MockingBird".

This wonderfully written book,which dates back to 1962,is about a white woman,Miss Skeeter, home from college who is curious and anxious about her own maid-cum-nanny, Constantine who has simply vanished from her life. But, gradually she gets interested in the lives of the black maids in working in the neighbouring white families and decides to write a book depic...

Very Good

Touchingly marvellous
The help is a story of three brave women who dare to defy conventions in order to achieve their vision of freeing the world from prejudices. It's a very moving story and it's possible to relate with all the characters, especially if you're a woman. I didn't buy this book from flipkart but I encourage you to give it a try. Trust me you won't be disappointed. The only issue I had with this book was its length for the story dragged a bit in a few places. But that's a minor ...

something to laugh , enjoy but also to look into

from the very first pages, you will rejoice this book, laughing into the accent, with the simplicity the thoughts of the 'helps' have been reflected like how celia foote is a less hot n more make-up version of Marilyn Monroe....but within all this commotion, something serious, highly sentimental goes on n you never lose a connection to any of the principal characters.A MUST READ for this generation and if you enjoy this, another recommendation-To Kill a Mocking Bird-Harper Lee a beautiful cla...

brilliant

an absolutely brilliant book by a new writer . Kathryn stockett transports her readers to the deep south in the 1960's.What with separate schools and churches for the black and white communities,there seem to be a lot of lines which are never to be crossed. America seems to have come a long way since that time .It's angry ,passionate and humorous at the same time with characters like hilly holbrook and minny. Comes in the category of "must reads".

lovely book....Gripping and beautifully depicted scenes and charecters!
You actually start living in Jackson, with the author's description of the place. A lot of discussion points , regarding how relevant this book is, so many decades later, and how we respect our own house help.

why I chose to read this book

So I had ordered my copy of the book on Saturday and I received on Sunday before 7pm,which was awesome. Now to talk about the book,the point till which I have read,The Help is quite the eye opener on how the African-American citizens were oppressed and how one single person could actually document everything and even though the language at first was a little hard to follow,I could actually empathise with the pain and suffering the main character went through. Even though I had seen a few part...
