A National fiction Prize Judge described this as a Zane Grey novel revised by Alice Walker....I agree. I sugest starting this w/o reading the flyleaf or anything else about it. There are several interesting plot twists that are better if you don't know what's coming. Also a quick read, hard to put down.

Great book
This was a wonderfully human story with unexexpected twists and turns.
