The #1 New York Times bestselling novel and basis for the Academy Award–winning film.
Aibileen is a black maid in 1962 Jackson, Mississippi, who's always taken orders quietly, but lately she's unable to hold her bitterness back. Her friend Minny has never held her tongue but now must somehow keep secrets about her employer that leave her speechless. White socialite Skeeter just graduated college. She's full of ambition, but without a husband, she's considered a failure. Together these seemingly different women join together to write a tell-all book about work as a black maid in the South, that could forever alter their destinies and the life of a small town.
Customer Reviews
A beautiful, perspective altering novel🙌
I both laughed and cried my way through this entire story. I love the way the author allowed me to see and understand the world through the eyes of her beautiful and diverse range of characters.
Incredibly Interesting!
This book was incredibly interesting and kept me wide awake for a long roadtrip I was making. I ended up listening to it with AirPods in as I did chores and walking the dog so I could keep listening when I was no longer on the road!
I love this book!
The chapter titles are a little wonky btw…
