I find that good things are often forgotten and this is especially true of books. Recently this book was offered at a huge discount on a BookBub email (if you love books and haven’t gotten on BookBub then you’re missing out). Here’s how Amazon describes the it: Winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1965, The Keepers of the House is Shirley Ann Grau’s masterwork, a many-layered indictment of racism and rage that is as terrifying as it is wise.

While set in a different era, you’ll find parallels to today’s racial environment. I can’t believe that I’d never heard of it, let alone read it. I also can’t believe that it hasn’t been made into a movie. It’s sort of like The Help, but with violence. And a killer ending. I give it two thumbs up.
