In Jackson, Missisippi, segregation is very strong. Unfair wages. Extreme civil rights differences for the African Americans and Whites. Skeeter has been different most of her life. She had a very close friendship with Constentene, her nanny, and African American. She didn't agree with the unfair treatment. So with the help of 12 negro women they write a book of the best and the worst times with their employers.
This book is 531 pages long. I'll give it a four out of five. (****)
