Two black to white

Let's go immediately to the criticism that does not fail to arise when they talk The Help, yes, Kathryn Stockett attended a workshop "Creative Writing" and it shows in his ingenious way forward his novel, in his portraits of women, thoroughness and accuracy that leave nothing to chance.
2½ million American have read the first book by Kathryn Stockett. And how in the southern states, on the side of the Mississippi, even where the action takes place, there is less than 50 years? No doubt, the novelist seized the segregationist atmosphere of the time, and the choice to describe the relationship between domestic (black, obviously) and bourgeois youth (white, of course) sharpens and amplifies the deleterious atmosphere.
By giving voice successively two good family and a good apprentice journalist, embarked on an improbable and highly dangerous undertaking, Kathryn Stockett has found the perfect cocktail. Two black to white, the first two secretly confiding in third for writing a book reflecting their everyday life, it is nothing short of dynamite, in a society of apartheid and uninhibited lamentable.
The book is sometimes stretched in length manic descriptions ambiguous relations between mistresses and maids (I almost wrote slaves) but all this rings true and strong and preparing for the final blast, which is delayed, but that does not disappoint , developed to draw some tears without falling into pathos inappropriate.
This is not great literature? No, but it is a great subject, treated with and without Manichaeism shades (not white against the black wicked nice, one is below). It is a dense novel, a negative Gone With The Wind, exciting as a documentary, exciting as fiction. With good chunks of humanity in it. So forget the writing workshops, Kathryn Stockett has a knack for staging and outstanding dialogues and takes easily the distance of 500 pages.
Obviously, you can expect the film will be shot. Frankly, even with Spielberg at the helm, damn it could bring more?
