Enter a vanished and unjust world: Jackson Mississippi 1962. Where black maids raise white
children but aren't trusted not to steal the silver... There's Aibileen raising her
seventeenth white child and nursing the hurt caused by her own son's tragic death Minny whose
cooking is nearly as sassy as her tongue and white Miss Skeeter home from College who wants
to know why her beloved maid has disappeared. Skeeter Aibileen and Minny. No one would believe
they'd be friends fewer still would tolerate it. But as each woman finds the courage to cross
boundaries they come to depend and rely upon one another. Each is in a search of a truth. And
together they have an extraordinary story to tell...
