Offered here is this soft cover 2009 Penguin Books edition of The Help, by Kathryn Stockett. The book is in particularly good condition, with there being only light wear at the corners and edges of the cover. The book is a little dusty, and there is some slight wear to the edges of the cover. The spine and binding are holding well, and all 534 pages including discussion group questions, and essay by the author are intact and in good condition. This is a genuinely nice book that was #1 on the New York Times Bestseller list, and was made into a major motion picture… Aibileen Clark is a black maid in 1962 Jackson, Mississippi, raising her seventeenth white child. She’s always taken orders quietly, but lately it leaves her with a bitterness she can no longer bite back. Her friend Minny Jackson has certainly never held her tongue, or held on to a job for very long, but now she’s working for a newcomer with secrets that leave her speechless. And white socialite Skeeter Phelan has just returned from college with ambition and a degree but, to her mother’s lament, no husband. Normally Skeeter would find solace in Contantine, the belove aid who raise her, but Constantine has inexplicably disappeared. Together, these seemingly different women join to work on a project that could forever alter their destinies and the life of a small town-to write, in secret, a tell-all book about what it’s really like to work as a black maid in the white homes of the South. Despite the terrible risks they will have to take, and the sometimes humorous boundaries they will have to cross, these three women unite with one intention: hope for a better day… The Help – Kathryn Stockett – Soft Cover – 2009 Penguin Books Edition – VGC Click images to enlarge Description Offered here is this soft cover 2009 Penguin Books edition of The Help, by Kathryn Stockett.
