Thoroughly enjoyed this book. Many people (supposedly) hated this book even after Oprah put it on her book list and I don't understand why. The characters are very well written an the plot weaves in and out of the African American experience of before and after slavery. As a book, without it being a book solely about Af-Am experience (which it has to be about), it's still pretty good.
