[Martha Bruce · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was written by my late grandmother. It is essentially a biography of her own life. I read it once before her passing, and I have yet to bring myself to read it again since. Trying to be as unbiased as possible, I do believe the story gives a very good insight into how hard it can be to live as a woman in The South during that time period, and how much harder it can be when you seem to think differently from everyone else in your community. 🩷

A nice '50s story. Good writer, does her characters well.
