In the character of Hilly Holbrook, Stockett has created one of the most vivid illustrations of the notion that absolute power corrupts absolutely: even it it’s only at the Junior League. I raced through the pages, confident that Hilly would get her just desserts in the hands of this confident storyteller and boy does she ever! The privileged Miss Skeeter’s story is not quite as gripping or believable as the the maids’ tales, but this is a small quibble for a novel that presses all the right buttons and makes yesterday’s headlines go down like porkchops. This novel earns the Stern Librarian’s commendation as the best novel of 2009. The Stern Librarian (I hate ironing pleats too).
