Mudbound by Hillary Jordan

I read Mudbound and also highly recommend that book although it is strange and dark. Barbara Kingsolver writes, "This is storytelling at the height of its powers...Hillary Jordan writes with the force of a Delta storm." It really is a page-turner! I have it and will send to any takers or bring in August. - BT

Read "mudbound" last summer and agree with turd. it is the kind of story that you are thankful that you don't know some of the characters in real life 'cause you'd have bad fantasies about how you could get them their justly deserved payback. some touching relationships that add several smiles, as well as some that make you want to throw the book on the floor and stomp it (and the bigots). in many ways it is a kindness that the book is so short. - Tillie
