Wow. Wow. Wow and wow. One of the best books Ive ever read. The writing was superb, the emotional was real and the characters were amazing. A fantastic novel that hits you somewhere in the gut and doesn't let go. This book was written in 1961...with themes that are difficult to discuss even now.
Something also very rare...usually I side with one character and stick to my guns with them, but in this novel, I see both sides and they conflict within me. I want to hug Frank and not let go, and April I want to take her out and show her off, but I can't do both. Both characters are strong, and they all have ideals I can relate to. This book is amazing and I doubt any will top it.
