A young Southern girl relives memories of her family - particularly of her grandmother and several of her grandmother's friends and servants - as she tries to come to terms with a threatened mental breakdown consequent upon her mother's recent death.
What a very sad book. And what a difficult ending? Who was the man at the end that called her name? Her dad?? Did she ever get better? I didn't like the way the story went back and forth btw 1965 and 1966)…. I was confused by it. I would have liked to know that she got better…. Mental health is so complicated. But I wanted to help her. She was a beautiful character. -and so was her grandmother.
