Three regular women are about to take one extraordinary step.
Twenty-two-year-old Skeeter has just returned home after graduating from Ole Miss. She may have a degree, but it is 1962, Mississippi, and her mom will not be happy till Skeeter has a diamond ring on her finger. Skeeter would normally find solace with her cherished maid Constantine, the girl who elevated her, but Constantine has vanished and no-one will notify Skeeter where she's ended up.
Aibileen is a dark-colored maid, a sensible, regal woman boosting her seventeenth white child. Something has shifted inside her after the lack of her own boy, who passed away while his bosses seemed the other way. She actually is devoted to the little girl she looks after, though she understands both their hearts may be broken.
Minny, Aibileens best ally, is short, extra fat, as well as perhaps the sassiest female in Mississippi. She can cook like nobodys business, but she cant mind her tongue, so shes lost another job. Minny finally confirms a position doing work for someone too new to town to know her reputation. But her new employer has secrets of her own.
Seemingly as not the same as each other as can be, these women will nonetheless come together for a clandestine task that will put them all at risk. And just why? Because they are suffocating within the lines that define their town and their times. And sometimes lines are created to be crossed.
In pitch-perfect voices, Kathryn Stockett creates three extraordinary women whose conviction to start out a movements of their own permanently changes a town, and just how women-mothers, daughters, caregivers, friends-view each other. A deeply moving book filled with poignancy, laughter, and desire, The Help is a ageless and universal account about the lines we follow, and those we dont.
