Description

Jackson, Mississippi, 1962. Aibileen is a black maid raising her seventeenth white child. Minny, Aibileen's best friend, is the sassiest woman in Mississippi: a wonderful cook with a gossip's tongue. Graduate Skeeter returns from college with ambitions, but her mother will not be happy until she's married. Although world's apart, Skeeter, Aibileen and Minny's lives converge over a clandestine project that will change the town of Jackson forever.

Professional reviews

"‘Kathryn Stockett's The Help is utterly magnificent’ The Independent (audiobook review) 'It's not often you get an Oscar-winner reading an audiobook, but even without Octavia Spencer, who bagged Best Supporting Actress this year for her part in the film of Stockett's bestseller, this would still be one of the most enthralling novels I've ever heard.' The Guardian (audiobook review) 'Audio is THE way to be inside this story, brilliantly cast with four voices' AudioFile Magazine 'Authenticity is heightened by the rich Southern accents of the multi-voice narrartion' The Oldie 'The combination of such a brilliant novel and four excellent narrators makes this the ideal starting point for anyone who has never listened to an audiobook before' The Western Mail"
