Editorial Reviews: Why You Should Download This Audiobook: Betty Smith's immensely moving novel is essentially a paean to the human spiritamong most uplifting works we can think of. It's one of those stories you delight in giving to a good friend or family member who might be facing difficulty, certain that it could change the way they perceive life or give them strength to overcome a problem. It's also worth mentioning that this novel is a refreshing, plainspoken American work, a welcome change of pace if you've been lately persuing dense or complex works of literature. Critic Reviews: "There's a reason this tale remains beloved after almost 50 years, and it stands with memoirs like Angela's Ashes for its happy-ending triumph over a bad childhood." (AudioFile) "A profoundly moving novel, and an honest and a true one. It cuts right to the heart of life." (The New York Times)
