I picked “The Help” up while browsing the bookstore at Berlin’s Tegel Airport. There wasn’t much of a choice in English books but I had a while to wait for my flight and this book looked slightly more interesting than the other romances, horror novels and potboilers it was on the shelf with.

It is a beautifully written book, moving effortlessly in narrative style between the white employers and their maids. The characters are well-developed and multi-dimensional and, although there is the temptation to intensely dislike “Miz Hilly” and her ilk, flashes of another part of her character sometimes come through, making one realise how just as imprisoned she was the narrow confines of her society as “the help” were in theirs. The cage was perhaps more gilded but a cage it was all the same.

A wonderful book – I agree with another reviewer who said, you can’t stop reading but wish the book would never end!

While relevant for it’s time, I find it to be one of the most over-hyped books ever. To be fair, I think this about all of his writing. So it goes.

This is an interesting book. It’s well paced and the story keeps pulling you along, although I can’t think of a single thing that makes it stand out. It’s not mysterious or adventurous and has very little romance in it, yet you keep reading. Maybe it’s just plain good story telling.
