This is an absolutely fascinating book. A great way to curl up with the splendor and glory of the old south and compare it ot the present day. The author tells a story which gives us a history and understanding of the very story it is telling. It is done in a wonderful and informative way. Ms. Robinson has a love for the south, her characters, their predicaments. She writes in a very flowing and moving manner as to pull the reader into the story and all it's emotional tolls. I love the way Robinson uses her characters and the flood of katrina in comparison to the turmoil of the civil war to drive her point home. An excellent book, well written. I would recommend it highly.
