Brought to you by Penguin.

Enter a vanished and unjust world: Jackson, Mississippi, 1962. Where black maids raise white children, but aren't trusted not to steal the silver...

There's Aibileen, raising her seventeenth white child and nursing the hurt caused by her own son's tragic death; Minny, whose cooking is nearly as sassy as her tongue; and white Miss Skeeter, home from College, who wants to know why her beloved maid has disappeared.

Skeeter, Aibileen and Minny. No one would believe they'd be friends; fewer still would tolerate it. But as each woman finds the courage to cross boundaries, they come to depend and rely upon one another. Each is in a search of a truth. And together they have an extraordinary story to tell...

Reviews

The other side of Gone with the Wind - and just as unputdownable A big, warm girlfriend of a book Harper Lee's classic novel To Kill a Mockingbird has changed lives. It's direct descendent The Help has the same potential . . . an astonishing feat of accomplishment Outstanding, immensely funny, very compelling, brilliant Immensely readable Daring, vitally important and very courageous, I loved and admired The Help. Fantastic A laugh-out-loud, vociferously angry must-read Touching, disgraceful, funny. Highly recommended Utterly brilliant Remarkable, shocking, brave, brilliant Wonderfully engaging dialogue A compelling, great first novel, with soaring highs, poignant side stories and laugh-out-loud anecdotes. You'll be sorry to finish it A winning story of courage and truth A brisk, involving read An exciting and atmospheric story A wise, poignant novel. You'll catch yourself cheering out loud Lush, original and poignant. A wondrous novel set in the deep south told through the authentic voices of Aibileen, Minnie and Skeeter, three unforgettable women whose lives and points of view intersect vividly against a landscape of hopeful change in America. You will be swept away as they work, play and love during a time when possibilities for women were few but their dreams of the future were limitless. A glorious read. Expand reviews
