Imad Husari _madhosari — love me some Roald

Abdirahman Mohamed iambyam — I haven't read "The Help" but reading the reviews reminded me of this book which I read for an upper level Modern Southern History class in college about 12 years ago. The book is perhaps more suited for those with a deep interest in history than the casual reader. I received an A+ on the paper I wrote for this book (which is more of a statement on the writing abilities of my classmates than my intellectual abilities) and one thing in particular always struck me: the deep divide between the perception of the white women and the unspoken reality of their servants. I lived in Savannah, GA while reading this and majoring in history. That divide still existed, albeit in a slightly different form. One interview sums up what I know from personal experience. The woman who was interviewed was angry. Angry at Northerners for persisting in believing that Southerners hate blacks. "There was never any hate in anybody's heart," she said. She, and most of the white women interviewed for the book, loved their servants. Of course, they loved them the way you love a child or a favorite pet. There was a lot of condescension and patronizing and a complete inability to believe that their servants did not tell them everything they felt. There was an utter lack of empathy and these women never acknowledged, not even to themselves, that they held a fearful, economic power over their servants that was always going to create a wall. They wore rose colored glasses about the way things were and nothing, not ever, is going to make them take them off.

Nemezida Soul _emezida_oul — I loved this. I want to shout that from the rooftops. I went into this with low expectations, for some reason I expected it to be very movie-like (since the movie IS about to come out). But that wasn't the case. It was very well written. I really appreciated the emotion that the main character, a boy, showed. Typically we don't see that emotion written for a boy. It was refreshing. I know that we'll probably learn what was in the letter in The Power Of Six but I really wish that that had been included in this book. Also, I'm very surprised at how quickly this book was picked up for a movie. Though, once reading it it became obvious that it would make a great movie.
