a gem of happiness

the encounter between two women, between two worlds.
Encounter between a woman in full CMV (mid-life crisis), depression of the 80s, and an old woman in later life (86 years) of life and especially sparkling joie de vivre!
Meeting between the happy world that hard of a small town in Alabama that crosses Great Depression, war, Ku Klux Klan etc ... and a world without faith or purpose of
80.

Ninnie and Evelyn meet weekly at the nursing home. Ninnie Evelyn tells the life of his village, the life of his time, "people of color" ... Friendship is woven ...

I happily followed the footsteps of the members of the village, laughing at their antics and setbacks, worrying about them ... I also followed Evelyn and anxieties, its fun to find Ninnie.

I really enjoyed reading this novel full of good sense and joyful.
this book is a real rest for the soul!
