Publisher's Summary
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 17th 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....

Loved it.
I couldn't put this book down. it broke my heart to finish it and though I felt really mad with some of the characters I couldn't help feeling in awe of the just desserts that were dished out.

Brilliant story
The Help is a moving, emotional, heart-rending story, it immerses you in the lives of black maids in Missisippi and their white employers. The insight it shows into human nature in all it's different facets is outstanding. It immerses you into the era and the lives of the women so much you feel you are living alongside them. The narration is superb, the accents and different voices never differ and it is a pleasure to listen to. Definitely worth 5 stars!

Fabulously entertaining
Beautiful production of this book. So easy to associate characters with voices. I laughed, I cried. I thoroughly enjoyed it from “cover to cover”.

Awesome Story
Loved every minute of it. Highly entertaining and very well presented . I saw the movie, which I enjoyed, before listening to the book. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the book is a little different to the movie but just as entertaining . I thought the narration was great. This story provides a fascinating snapshot of the not so distant past. Thoroughly worth the time.

Riveting.
Raw and emotional in content but beautifully written.
The great narration made it even more enjoyable.
It's hard to believe the extent of the racism that existed back then and one can only pray that it decreases more with each passing year.
